USCPSC Recalls Fisher Price Load-N-Go Wagons for Lacerations Risks; Kansas City Affected

At Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys, we make it our responsibility to get the word out to Kansas and Missouri parents whenever a well known company issues a dangerous product recall.  The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Fisher Price Toys have announced a re-call on over 200,000 Little People Builders' Load ‘n Go Wagons because of laceration hazards posed by the children's toy. The product recall went into effect on July 28, 2011.

The dangerous product recall was issued after discovering that the back of the wagon's plastic handle has molded-in reinforcement, which adds stiffness and facilitates children gripping the handle. A laceration hazard if a child falls on the handle. Fisher-Price has received seven reports of injuries, including five which required stitches or surgical glue.

 

Consumers are being advised to contact Fisher-Price for instructions to learn how to receive a free repair kit.
