The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued the recall Wednesday.
On its website, it said the cooler's latch can automatically lock when the lid is closed, which could cause someone to get trapped inside and possibly suffocate.
The issue can be fixed with a repair.
This affects the Igloo 'Marine Elite Coolers' which are airtight and made for use around water.
