Accrued: No; Disclosed: No

Explanation:

In accrual accounting an expense or revenue is only recorded when incurred and earned respectively.

In this instance there is a possibility of a safety hazard for manufactured product.

Since no claim has been made yet we do not accrued any amount.

The principle of full disclosure requires that a business discloses information that significantly influenced a business's financial statement.

No claims have been made on the safety hazard, although there is reasonable possibility a claim can be made and damages can be estimated.

For the business this is irrelevant to be disclosed as no claim has actually been mad that can affect the business.
