The product, in the report: The product is a ride on/scoot ship that has little people, an anchor, a small flag and a button that plays sounds. The ship is brown and gray. The seat lifts up for storage of people. It has an anchor attached (small yellow) by a string.
My son was playing with the Little Tikes Play n Scoot Pirate Ship. He was able to remove the string from the ship that holds the anchor, remove the anchor from the string and put the string in his mouth. I was able to immediately remove the string although this is a choking hazard. The product advertises 18M+. The wheels also do not stay on which can cause it to tip when a child is on it scooting. Several other parents report similar issues with the parts being easily removed and small enough to be ingested. Safety concerns shouldnt be ignored.

Per the company, Ice cream cone speaker plays ice cream truck music by RZA of [REDACTED] A convenient handle lets a parent push, or remove the floorboard and let your little one take control Includes play ice cream cones and credit-card reader Tailgate trunk
I was putting together a Little Tikes Ice Cream Cozy truck (model XCL657856M8) that I purchased today at Sam’s Club. When I added the brand new [REDACTED] (AAA) batteries into the music speaker, I noticed the product was defective. I went to remove the batteries and it burned my fingers. That was when I noticed a strong electrical burning smell from the speaker. I removed the cover and slide the batteries out. That was when I also noticed the casing from one of the batteries was melted and the batteries are extremely HOT. WE plan on returning this product tomorrow for fear of an electrical fire. This all occurred in a matter 6 minutes from the time the batteries went into the music speaker to the time we slide out noticed the melted battery case.

Seen by a doctor or nurse Made Nov 18, 2016, sent to the company Nov 30, 2016, published by CPSC Dec 14, 2016
The product, in the report: Little Tikes Cozy Truck (Item Number: 620744)
My child received the Little Tikes Cozy Truck (Item Number: 620744) as a gift for his second birthday. The age requirements are 1.5 - 5 years and the weight limit is 50 lb. My child is 2 years old and weighs 28 lbs (well within the age and weight limits).
The incident occurred within two days of using the product. The truck seems to have a tendency to be unstable on hard surfaces (despite the product description pictures showing the truck being used on hard surfaces). It is more stable on carpeted areas.
On 10/17/2016 my child was sitting in the truck in our kitchen. My mother and I were both standing right there within arm’s reach of him, watching him play with the truck. He was using it appropriately. The door was facing away from us and he attempted to exit the truck. He was holding onto the door of the truck for support and was re-positioning his legs to get them out of the hole in the bottom of the truck, over the seat, and onto the floor so he could exit. However, as he was attempting to do so, the entire thing tipped over sideways and fell on top of him. Because of the angle (the truck tipped over away from where my mother and I were standing), we were unable to grab onto the truck to keep it from tipping over. After the whole thing fell over with my son inside, we both lifted the truck off of my son. He had fallen out face-first onto the floor when the truck tipped over. He was screaming and crying and bleeding from the mouth. Both of his upper front teeth were broken. One tooth was half gone and the other one was fractured. Both were loose and his gums were bleeding.
My child then required an emergency dental appointment where x-rays were taken to assess the damage. He needed a seal applied on both teeth to temporarily build the broken one back up a little and coat the fractured one to protect it from breaking apart. He also required a chest x-ray to ensure that no parts of the broken-off tooth had been aspirated (thankfully the results determined this was not the case). After a follow-up dental appointment two weeks later, it was determined there isn’t anything else that can be done to permanently fix his teeth other than to restrict him from biting into any hard/crunchy foods until he is old enough to understand that he cannot use his front teeth to bite into anything until he loses them in 4-5 years and his permanent teeth come in to replace them. Functionally and cosmetically my child’s teeth are not the same due to this incident. It was a very traumatic experience for my child that he is still talking about and processing a month later.
It’s really too bad because this seemed like a cute product and my child really enjoyed playing with it prior to this incident. However, there is a serious safety issue with the product. This should not have happened. There are no warnings or cautions noted anywhere on the product or packaging stating that it could tip over (although even if there had been, we would not have allowed it to be purchased for him in the first place as this is a huge safety concern for obvious reasons). My child was using the product appropriately and under close adult supervision when the incident happened. It is clearly an unsafe product and needs some serious renovations to better distribute the child’s weight, especially as they are exiting the truck. It should not, under any circumstances, be able to tip over when the child is getting out (or using the product in any other appropriate manner). This is a serious design flaw that needs to be addressed immediately to prevent more kids from getting hurt.

My son was using the Little Tikes Go & Grow Lil’ Rollin’ Giraffe Ride-On and face planted onto the ground due to the toy flipping forward. This resulted in a trip to the local Emergency Room because of his teeth breaking through the skin under his lip as well as bruising his chin. I have looked up the item online to see if this has happened to any other children and was shocked to find how many kids have been injured.

The product, in the report: Little Tikes Play and Scoot Pirate Ship Ride On
My son was playing on the Little Tikes play and scoot pirate ship and one of the wheels fell off. This continues to happen, even though you press the wheels on and hear the “click” that they are in place. He was playing on a hard surface and sitting on the toy normally when suddenly he tried to scoot it and the wheel popped off causing him and the toy to fall over. This is a common issue if you read the reviews on amazon and i think the company should recall it and fix the issue.

The product, in the report: Little Tikes Cozy Coupe
We purchase the Little Tikes Cozy Coupe in 2009 for our son’s first Christmas. Our son was 9 months old at the time. The product was marketed towards children this age and older. There were multiple incidents of the car tipping over as our son, and later our daughter, tried to either maneuver the car or enter/exit. The car is very top heavy and tips easily, and it appears to be a flaw with the design.
Earlier today, my daughter, who is currently 21 months old, was attempting to turn the Cozy Coupe around in our garage while sitting in it. The car tipped over again, this time slamming my daughter’s face into our garage floor. She was bleeding from the mouth, and required stitches for a laceration on her chin.
I understand that no toy is completely safe...however, the injuries incurred were from normal use of the car. She was simply sitting in it and trying to drive it. The car is too top heavy to allow safe use by young children and toddlers.

Little Tikes Deluxe 2-in-1 Cozy Roadster
I bought this product for my 19 month old daughter at Toys R Us on April 15, 2012 in Temecula, CA.
We brought it home and followed directions and put it together. The next day I had her on it and noticed she had something in her mouth. It was the green peg that is from the green part of the seat. I also found the screw that is suppose to hold the green peg in in the cup holder behind the seat. I thought maybe we just did not tighten it enough. So that night my husband put it back in and screwed it as tight as it would go.
The next day when I had her in it on the way to take my son to his bus. She had the green peg in her hand and the SCREW in her mouth!!!! She cried when it poked her in her mouth.
I emailed Little Tikes and Called Toys R Us about this product.
ToyrRUs says that to contact you all and Little Tikes since it is a dangerous toy.
Little Tike: [REDACTED] Escalated Incident Specialist The Little Tikes Company
Told me we must not have put it together right since their web site has no bad reviews for the product. She told me to mail it back to them at my cost and they will decided if it is dangerous or not. I said I think the product should be recalled and I wanted to be refunded the money I paid for it and for shipping and packaging cost. She said that my daughter did not get hurt so it is ok. (she was not to good on wording things) I asked to talk to a supervisor and was told that would be [REDACTED] and she was not taking calls right now. I asked to have her call me and I am still waiting.
This product is poorly made in many ways. Screws coming off, handle flimsy and could come off causing a child being pushed down hill to get injured.
Please recall this product before a little one dies!
