Giant Bicycle Recalls LED-Light Keys Due to Battery Ingestion Risk

Plain-English summary

Giant Bicycle, Inc. is recalling LED-light bike lock keys that were included with certain SureLock Bicycle Lock sets. The recall involves approximately 3,630 units sold in the United States and 1,395 units in Canada. These keys were sold at Giant Bicycle authorized stores nationwide and online from March 2023 through August 2026 for between $25 and $65.

The recalled LED-light keys violate the mandatory safety standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries. The button batteries can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. Additionally, the packaging and product lack the warnings required under Reese’s Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, they can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns, and death. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should stop using the recalled LED-light key immediately and contact Giant Bicycle for a $5 refund. To participate in the recall, consumers must bring the LED key to an authorized Giant retailer and provide either the complete bicycle lock purchase or a picture of the serial number on the bicycle lock to verify it is within the scope of the recall. Consumers may continue to use the bicycle lock and the non-LED-light keys included with the SureLock Bicycle Lock sets.
