The product, in the report: Moderno Kids 1x Porsche Boxster Style 12V Kids Ride on Car, Battery powered wheels with remote control for parental controls Model MKSX158

I am prompted to write this report for the following reason. I purchased Moderno Kids 1x Porsche Boxster 12V Kids Ride on car with battery powered wheels that also came with a remote control for parental control for my grand daughters 1st birthday. However, one night while everyone was sleep the car came on by itself and the wheels of the car were turning but it did not move, both the car and the remote was downstairs in the family room. My son in law ran downstairs to try to turn off the car but he could not get the car to cut off either by pressing the on/off switch in the car or with the remote so he had to lift the seat and detach the battery in order for the car to turn off. At the time of the incident no one was using the ride on car, the on/off switch was off, the remote was off. Fortunately, no one was injured. The concern is that if the ride on car is able to come on by itself and can not be turned off with the power switch on the car or the remote control this could definitely be a safety issue/defect especially if the child is sitting in the car. The second concern is that the battery is stored under the seat where the child is sitting and if the car won’t shut off by pushing the on/off button or by the remote this could pose a safety risk to the child. The third concern is that if no one was home and the car came on and was powered by the battery for a continuous amount of time could have resulted in overheating, fire or explosion.

TO: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Attention: Clearinghouse 4330 East West Highway Bethesda, MD 20814-4408 Re: Report ID: 20160709-2FDB0-2147417050
Dear Sir/Madam,
We acknowledge receipt of the report submitted on July 9, 2016 and sent to us on August 1, 2016, with regards to our Model MKSX-158 kids toy car (the “Product”).
We take every report of this nature very seriously hence our response below.
We regret that the submitter expressed dissatisfaction with the Product. Customer satisfaction is our top priority. The submitter used and was in possession of the Product for more than 30 days before informing us that she wanted to replace it. Because she was in possession of the Product beyond our 30-day return period, as part of our customer service, we did inform the submitter that she could receive replacement parts of the Product in accordance with the terms of our warranty or allow us to inspect the Product to verify her concerns. Unfortunately, she did not exercise any of the available options. Without being afforded the opportunity to inspect the Product, we have no way of determining the substantive veracity of her claims.
For the record, we have been selling the Product for about 2 years now. It is one of our best-selling products in the market. It has at least a 95% Amazon positive feedback rating, and great reviews from most of our customers thereon and on other online outlets. We sell thousands of the Product every month and have never received any complaints at all, not least of the nature alleged by the submitter.
Before being released to the market, the Product underwent a battery of exhaustive testing. It meets the rigorous ASTM standards. It is ASTM approved, a prerequisite to being sold in the USA. It also meets the strict European standards on safety of toys. We have therefore met all the required safety standards and have been issued all the obligatory safety certificates as proof of this.
Without questioning the motive of the submitter, the Product simply does not have the capacity nor the capability of automatically switching on of its own accord as alleged by the submitter. This is simply not possible. For it to turn on, it requires deliberate, discerning and cognizant physical action by a person.
It is also important to note that the submitter appears to have purchased the Product for a 1 year old child against the clear warning and safety labels attached to the Product and specified in the product description online, as per regulatory requirements. It is rated for 2-plus year old children when used in remote model by parents. Children aged 3 years and over, can use it by themselves.
In conclusion, and as earlier stated, we take every report seriously. Out of abundance of caution, we are in the process of reviewing our existing inventory of the Product to ensure and maintain the highest of safety standards.
Sincerely,
Serge Kopil Authorized Representative Moderno LLC
