Emergency room Made Jul 5, 2011, published by CPSC Jul 26, 2011
The product, in the report: Grow-Ped Go-Ped Kick Scooter
My child was riding a Grow-Ped Go-Ped Kick Scooter when he used the front-wheel brake causing the back of the scooter to flip up. As he fell forward, over the front of the scooter, the “hook” sliced into his nose, causing a significant laceration which extended from approximately 1/2 inch inside his left nostril, to the base of his nostril and then spidered approximately 1/2 inch across his left cheek. The injury was severe enough that we spent 14 hours in two different hospital emergency rooms and he had to be fully sedated to make the repairs to his face. The metal “hook” is designed to hold the scooter together when folded; however, it is allowed to swing freely around the handlebars while the scooter is under operation or the hook is otherwise not in use. I believe there is a very easy “fix” to resolve this issue and ensure other children to not have to endure the pain and suffering my child did as a result of using this product. The hook should be secured so it is unable to swing freely on the handlebar during operation and the front brake should be removed from this product as it is intended for use by children and “younger riders” who do not understand the repercussions of applying a front brake when scootering.
