Ancheer E-Bikes Recalled Due to Fire, Explosion and Burn Hazards

About 22,000 Ancheer e-bikes with lithium-ion batteries are being recalled because the batteries can ignite, explode, or spark, causing fire and burn injuries. Consumers should stop using the recalled bikes immediately and contact Ancheer for a free replacement battery and mount.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly reports six incidents with four confirmed burn injuries, meeting the criterion for Severe severity: reported significant injury reports where consumers have already been harmed. Although no deaths are mentioned, the combination of reported injuries with a structural defect in the power source justifies a Severe classification.

Plain-English summary

About 22,000 Ancheer e-bikes are being recalled due to a hazard with their lithium-ion batteries. The batteries can ignite, explode, or spark, posing fire, explosion, and burn hazards to consumers.

The recalled model is the Ancheer e-bike with model number AM001907. The model number appears on the e-bike packaging and instruction manual but not on the bike itself. A water bottle-shaped cylindrical battery distinguishes this model from other Ancheer models. The bikes are black with 26-inch wheels and have "Ancheer" printed on the downtube.

Ancheer has received six reports of incidents involving fire, explosions, or sparks, including four reports of burn injuries. The affected e-bikes were sold online through AliExpress, Ancheer.shop, Amazon, eBay, Newegg, Overstock, Rakuten, Sears, Walmart, and Wish from January 2016 through June 2022, priced between $280 and $930.

Consumers should stop using the recalled e-bikes immediately and contact Ancheer for a free replacement battery and battery mount. Ancheer can be reached toll-free at 888-661-1330 (9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, except public holidays), by email at [email protected], or online at www.ancheer.shop/recalls or www.ancheer.shop (click "Recalls" at the top of the page).
