Product Details
| Product name | Children’s Power Wheels Porsche riding automobile |
| Description | Children’s Power Wheels Porsche riding automobile which is powered by a rechargeable 18-volt battery. The automobile moves forward by pressing a foot pedal and stops when the pedal is released. A spring-loaded switch beneath the pedal is depressed to activate the motor. |
| Problem | The recalled automobiles are equipped with a stronger, 18-volt battery system which, unlike the 12-volt battery used in previous models, may cause the switch’s contact points to weld together during the initial surge of electricity. If this were to happen, the motor would remain running and the vehicle would continue moving forward, unable to stop. |
| Distribution | Nationwide at various retailers. |
| Company | Kransco Power Wheels, 800-348-0751. |
| Dates sold | Beginning August 1991. |
