    The product, in the report: Extra-large inflatable rubber ball 54-3450W

    I purchased an extra-large inflatable rubber ball from Walmart for my 19 month old granddaughter. Had the ball for about a week. The ball was never used outside, just in my living room. On Friday night 3/1/2019 my wife was sitting in the living room watching TV, and the ball just exploded. The ball separated into two pieces If my granddaughter had been playing with the ball at the time of the explosion she would have been hurt. The information on the ball is : Hedstrom Ball Bounce & Sport Inc Ashland, Ohio 44805 54-3450W Not sure why this ball exploded, but I am concerned that if a child is playing with one, and it explodes they will get hurt.
