Plain-English summary
Tyco Toys, Inc. is offering a free guard kit for approximately 25,000 1986 models of Schaper "Speed Wheels" ride-on toys. The recall was initiated in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to address a safety hazard involving the pedal bar.
The hazard involves the entrapment of children's fingers between the pedal bar and the body of the toy. This defect has been associated with eight incidents of laceration or fingertip severance. The corrective action program applies only to 1986 models (Schaper Model No. 61106) that were sold without a guard kit. Other toys distributed by Tyco Toys are not affected.
Owners of the affected model should call Tyco Toys at 800-257-7728 (or 800-322-8011 in New Jersey) to obtain the free guard kit. Consumers may also write to the Speed Wheels Corrective Action Program at Tyco Toys, Inc., 540 Glen Avenue, Moorestown, NJ 08057.
