Toy Activity Truck Recalled

The Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC") announced the recall of this Toy Activity Truck on April 11, 2011.  Search around your child's collection for it and remove it if you see it.  See the CPSC's website for information about how to return it for a refund.  A choking hazard prompted the recall - the plastic beads on the activity truck's bead runs can detach.  According to CPSC reports, the toy's distributor, Infantino, LLC, has received 28 reports of the plastic beads detaching from the bead runs on the activity trucks, including two reports of young children gagging on the plastic beads.

Injuries Reported - Use of Multi-Surface Walking Balls Discouraged

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has discouraged use of the Walking Ball.  I am unaware of any recall of the recreational device, to date.  Injury risks include the potential for suffocation, drowning, and impact.  Heightening the risk of injury is the absence from this device of any emergency exit; it can be opened only by a person outside of the ball, significantly magnifying the risk of injury or death when a person inside the ball experiences distress.  Several states have banned or refused to issue permits for use of the device.

Go to the Consumer Product Safety Commission's website for further background information, and contact me if you have questions about your rights concerning related injuries.
