The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Sep 11, 2023, sent to the company Sep 13, 2023, published by CPSC Sep 27, 2023

    The product, in the report: RadWagon 4 e-bike by Rad Power Bikes. Orange cargo bike.

    A tire on our RadWagon 4 from Rad Power Bikes exploded under no stress whatsoever. While no one was hurt, if we had been riding (the product is designed to carry 2 kids plus the rider), injuries would have been highly likely. Many tires for this model of bike were subject to a recall (those with ribbed sidewall see: Rad Power Bikes Recalls RadWagon 4 Electric Cargo Bikes Due to Fall and Crash Hazards (Recall Alert)). However, when I contacted Rad to let them know of this alarming failure, they said that my tires were not part of the recall. I’m concerned that these tires (smooth sidewall) are defective just like the others. I’m trying to keep kids safe.
