  1. No one hurt

    Made Jan 8, 2026, sent to the company Jan 13, 2026, published by CPSC Jan 30, 2026

    The product, in the report: Youth All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV), white and orange in color. It is a 125cc class four-wheeler designed for youth riders.

    I am reporting a recurring, life-threatening fuel system failure on a brand-new Kayo Predator 125 EFI youth ATV (VIN: [REDACTED]). The vehicle has only 17 miles of use.

    On two separate occasions, the fuel system has failed, spraying raw gasoline directly onto a hot engine and exhaust system. The first incident occurred at 16 miles when a fuel clip failed. After a 3-week “repair” at the dealership using factory parts, the new fuel line split and began spraying fuel again within one mile of operation.

    Additionally, the fuel pump has now completely locked up, rendering the unit non-functional. The exhaust also smells heavily of raw, unburnt fuel, indicating a total failure of the Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system. This unit poses a severe fire and explosion risk to the child operator.

    UPDATED ON 2/4/2026: [Key Technical Findings to be Added to the Report: • The dealership technician has officially diagnosed the cause of the high-pressure fuel leak and fire hazard as an “internally defective leaking injector.” • The repair also required the replacement of a “failed fuel line clip.”]

    UPDATED ON 2/6/2026: [New Evidence of Hazard Concealment: • Falsified Service Records: On February 4, 2026, the dealership issued an invoice claiming “no leaks found.” This directly contradicts my time-stamped video evidence showing raw fuel spraying from the fuel line at 17 miles. • Physical Impossibility in Dealer Claims: The dealer’s owner is claiming the fuel leak was a “vent overfill.” However, his own technician documented the tank as 3/4 full on the same invoice. This confirms the fuel spray was a system leak, not a venting event. • Safety Circuit Failure: I have documented evidence that the fuel pump primes even when the safety kill switch is in the “off” position. The dealer has dismissed this as “user error,” while the technician admitted he had to “press in” on the switch to get the unit to start. This indicates a defective fire-suppression safety circuit.]
