Description of what happened:
My son who is 2, 32 pounds, wears a 3T, got this fisher price power whee.l lil buggy for his birthday. On Saturday he was riding it and drove it through a barb wire fence and cut his neck very bad. It was 4cm laceration that cut completely though his skin. I was watching my son, I just couldn’t get there in time to stop him from driving between the strands of barb wire. We own 5 other Fisher Price Power Wheels, and have never had any accidents like this. We’ve owned and used Power Wheel products for almost 5 years. The power of the Lil’ Buggy, set for children age 2 and up, combined with the low statue of this buggy made for a very dangerous situation. My child was supervised, but I wasn’t able to get to him before he drove into the barb wire fence. I ran as fast as I could to get him free, it was too late. He had to be rushed to the ER, with a large laceration on his neck under his chin and received 7 stitches. Here are the problems I see with this vehicle toy. 1. It sits too low to the ground and very aerodynamic. 2. It has NO windshield or other device to keep a child from driving through a barb wire fence or under a car and pinning themselves and choking to death. It could easily go under a vehicle and pin a child, choking them or burning them (if the car had recently been on) 3. This buggy goes very fast and has a lot of power, going over garden hoses and other obstacles that stop our other Power Wheel products, that results in more probability of lodging the buggy under a car/truck or through a fence such as what happened to my son. 4. My son was pinned against the barb wire fence, he was unable to reach the reverse button between his legs to get himself out of the situation. If the child was to get pinned under a vehicle they would not be able to push the reverse button to remove themselves from under a vehicle. 5. My son panicked and continued to push the gas pedal, as I assume most 2 year old’s would and the car continued to spin the tires trying to drive forward. I believe that a cut off switch would be a great idea on all power wheels, so that it could detect when a car/truck/others tires were spinning and it would shut off power to the battery and the car would stop. This would keep the car from pushing the child under a vehicle or fence. I believe this Lil’ Buggy should be recalled and spare other parents from what we just went through. I will add the 5 other power wheels we own sit higher and have a hood/nose/front end with a windshield that keeps them 1′ away from obstacles such as fences, vehicles or other dangers. We followed all of the rules set forth on the instructions. I would have never in a million years thought that it would drive the font of it through the barb wire fence as it’s never happened with our other 5. It was very scary for our family and could have been so much worse, my little boy could have died. If it had cut his airway or jugular vein, we are so thankful and blessed that he is going to make a full recovery, we don’t want anyone else to go through this.
