Plain-English summary

Li Peng Enterprises, Inc., of Los Angeles, California, is voluntarily recalling two models of toy cars in an agreement with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The recalled products are plastic toys sold as wind-up and battery-powered models, featuring a panda pushing another panda in a four-wheel cart. The carts are labeled "MUSICAL CAB ST-22 (A or B) MADE IN TAIWAN." Each cart includes an umbrella with plastic discs and balls hanging from it.

The recall is being issued because the balls on the umbrellas and other small parts can come off, presenting a choking hazard to young children. Approximately 4,800 wind-up toys and 3,600 battery-powered models were sold between November 1987 and January 1988 for $2.50 each.

Consumers should immediately take the toys away from children. They should discard the toys or return them to the retail store where purchased for a full refund.
