    The product, in the report: Playground surface is poured in place rubber from recycled tires and urethane

    2 year old child walked onto surface of playground without shoes on and received second and third degree burns on the bottom of his feet. The surface is poured in place rubber from recycled tires. I personally went to this park this year and it’s the same surface and I checked the temperature of the surface on a 75 degree day the surface temperature of this material read 153 degrees F.

    This is the article the newspaper reported about the incident http://www.gillettenewsrecord.com/news/article_61dc23fa-ed8c-5407-8588-827e19a95835.html

    It’s address is Darby park in Gillette. It’s a public park. When this incident happened the city shrugged off responsibility and so did the manufacturer. As of now there are no warning signs regarding temperatures. They did nothing but ignore this.

    And since this is made with recycled tires it would contain lead, cadmium, arsenic, benzene, Mercury, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phthalates, 1-3 betadiene and many more chemicals used in making tires.

    The product, in the report: The Spring on a spring Rider.

    The caller stated that while at the neighborhood playground in Park Scene lane in Cary, NC 27519.

    The caller was a volunteer in charge of the playground and was informed that around 7pm on Monday 4/16/2012 a volunteer was inspecting the playground and saw that the animal spring rider had been fractured and noticed sharp edges poking out. The volunteer in charge had someone go out to the park and had the item removed on 4/17/2012. There were no injuries associated with the fractured part.

    A report was filed with the manufacturer for a similar incident last year and the distributor was contacted but no response from them as of yet.

    The inspector had came out and had contacted the manufacturer as well and had no response as well.

    The consumer feels that the animal spring is unsafe and that there was no “warning” on the item that suggested a weight restriction or anything of that nature. She feels that the spring should be redesigned to eliminate the possibility of sudden fracture caused by metal fatigue. If this is feasible the spring should come with a warning that it must be replaces at intervals set by the manufacturer. She was also informed that in order to have the part inspected it would cost her approximately $2000 each time.
