The product, in the report: Jeep Power Wheel
The consumer indicates that the product was last used during Labor Day weekend 2016; since the battery had died, he charged it before storing the unit in his garage.
The consumer indicates that he was home when all of a sudden a neighbor knocked at his door indicating that there was a lot of smoke coming from his garage. The consumer immediately saw what happened and unlocked and opened his garage door. The consumer noticed that there were extensive flames coming from the Jeep power wheel. The consumer proceeded to grab a broom and try to pull the product outside but he was unable to since it had already started melting to the floor. The consumer asked his neighbor to call the Fire Department while he ran inside to turn his outside water on so he could try to put the fire out while the Fire Department got to his place. A fire truck was at his home within five minutes of being called and it took the firefighters about fifteen minutes to put the fire out.
The consumer states that the unit caught fire and destroyed many things in his garage; one side of his historical-plated pick-up truck was burnt; his two toolboxes (one worth 4,000.00$ and the other 1,800.00$); one side of the garage’s shelving and everything that was in it: circular saw, roofing nailers, miter saw, etc.; burnt ceiling; interior wall and outside wall siding; power washer melted; damaged grill, roll-around seat, all of the electrical wiring going to the garage melted, etc.
The consumer states that, prior to the incident, the unit was used approximately once a month for about thirty minutes when his grandkids would come over.
The consumer indicates that the product is burnt and melted into his garage floor.
