No one hurt Made Jun 2, 2015, sent to the company Jun 10, 2015, published by CPSC Jul 1, 2015
The product, in the report: This is a caterpillar cement truck, approximately a foot long by six- eight inches high. It has a remote control that is tethered to the toy by a cord that’s about 2.5-3 feet long.
My 5 year old was playing with a Caterpillar Cement Truck with a Tethered Remote Control made by Toy State International Ltd. The toy is rated for 3+ ages. In the short time that I looked away, he wrapped the cord around his neck 4 times. When he stood to come and tell me about it, the weight of the truck and the remote control tightened. He was coughing and whimpering and couldn’t figure out how to unravel the cord when he came to me. I quickly unwound the cord from his neck, and thankfully he was okay. There was a red mark around his neck for the next thirty minutes after the event. Thankfully Nothing terrible happened, but I can only imagine if he hadn’t come to me right away. We have had several conversations prior to this about the dangers of cords around the neck, especially since he has younger siblings. I feel the age rating should be higher on toys with tethered remote controls, or perhaps the remote should simply be wireless.
