Product Report and Image |
Hazard
The product presents a serious risk of choking as the keys and (once released from the lock) padlock fit entirely inside a small parts cylinder. Both the steering wheel and light are battery operated with no screw to secure the compartment. This means the batteries are easily accessible. A young child may put these small parts in their mouth and choke. Additionally, the rope at the top and cord used to secure the phone toy to the board both pose a strangulation hazard to a young child as they exceed the maximum 300mm length and can tangle. The product also requires improvements to documentation and markings.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
Corrective action
The import has been rejected at the border and destroyed.
