Plain-English summary

Kids Preferred LLC is recalling about 3,500 Primary Sounds Toy Vehicles, including soft, stuffed yellow taxis, black and white police cars, and red fire engines. The recall is due to a choking hazard, as the hubcaps on the toy's plastic wheels can detach. The toys measure about 6 inches in length and 5 inches in width and feature a silver-colored button that makes sounds when pushed.

The company has received one report of an incident where the wheel and hubcap detached while a child was playing with the toy. No injuries have been reported. The recalled toys were sold at Kohl's Department Stores and specialty retailers nationwide from September 2005 through January 2006 for about $12.
