The product, in the report: Pororo THES10 Foldable Electric Scooter for Adults with Seat (350W / 8.5” Tires)
Incident Summary: During the very first operational use of a newly assembled Pororo THES10 electric scooter, the structural support bolt securing the rider’s seat failed under normal operation. The seat abruptly and violently tipped backward, causing the rider to lose control and be dumped backward directly onto the rear wheel. The rider was wearing a helmet and luckily escaped physical injury, but the mechanical failure presents an extreme risk of severe bodily harm or death to future consumers. Technical Details of the Defect: The failure stems from a critical manufacturing and packaging defect involving the 3-inch-long hex bolt with a matching 1/2-inch hex nut located directly beneath the seat assembly. This bolt/nut is responsible for locking the “fore and aft” tilt angle of the seat. Factory Under-Torquing: The bolt/nut arrived pre-assembled from the factory but was under-torqued and insufficiently tightened to withstand standard rider load. Missing Maintenance Tools: The product packaging failed to include the necessary 1/2-inch hex wrench required for a consumer to verify, adjust, or securely tighten this specific load-bearing bolt during initial assembly. Risk to Public Safety: The Walmart webpage explicitly advertises a maximum weight capacity of either 220 or 264 lbs. for the THES10 model. The 220 lbs. figure is in the Durable Construction section but under the specs pulldown, it says Max load 264 lbs. The reporter of this incident weighs just under 195 lbs. and still experienced an immediate structural failure of the seat. For consumers approaching the upper limits of the advertised weight capacity, the factory-under-tightened bolt is virtually guaranteed to slip under normal riding stress. Because the seat collapses backward, this defect creates an immediate risk of a rider experiencing, catastrophic falls, head/neck trauma, or bone fractures.
