    The product, in the report: Razor Electric Scooter purchased via Amazon. NYS’s designated Capital District Field Investigator [REDACTED] has been consulted and she advised that she will contact the victim to receive more details if assigned the case.

    I am writing on behalf of NYS consumers [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]. The couple bought Razor brand electric scooters for their daughters for Christmas from Amazon. On the morning of December 26, 2018, [REDACTED] plugged the two scooters located in the garage to charge. When they were finishing up bathing their 3 daughters they heard a large boom in the garage, [REDACTED] went to look saw smoke and yelled for [REDACTED] and girls to get out of the house. Then he went to the front of the house to look at the garage from the outside and saw flames licking at his car. Got keys to [REDACTED] SUV and moved it away from the house. Everyone got out safely but the home was a total loss that has devastated this family.

    Here are some clips that are relevant to the investigation

    The product, in the report: RAZOR POWER CORE 90 ELECTRIC SCOOTER THAT YOU STAND ON TO RIDE

    I recently purchased a Razor Power Core 90 Electric Scooter,and I think this a very dangerous”:TOY” for a child .. I bought this for my grandchild because it stated that it reached speeds UP TO 10 mph .and .this is clearly not the case . It should read from stop to 10 mph because you can’t control the throttle ; After assembly and charge up time ,we went out to the driveway and because I wanted to be sure it was safe.and considering that I have rode motorcycles all my life and I even raced motocross at a younger age ,I felt I was qualified to to do this .Boy was I wrong, and I am a 50 + year old man.Lets start from the first time I pushed the BUTTON that replaces the standard twist throttle on the handbars . I pushed it ...nothing happens ,I push it again ...same result. . So I go back to instruction booklet and find out you must push scooter in a forward motion and push biutton. I tried this a couple of time and nothing happens .By now I am frustrated so i push the scooter forward very fast and push button and it takes off so fast that it jerks out of my hands causing me ,well an embarressing fall along with cuts and abrasions to my hands ,elbows ,knees and other places I rather not discuss. It should read “FR0M STOP TO 10 MPH .BECAUSE THERE IS NO IN BETWEEN” . There is no way to control the speed on this scooter and I think a very dangerous scooter not only to the child but any one in the path of this scooter. I feel you should be able to control a vehicle s speed for it to be safe if i am the only that thinks this , lets take the gas pedal from all cars and trucks and replace with a button that goes from STOP TO TOP SPEED INSTANTLY” . But we all know what would happen if this was done ,Death and Destruction , so why are we doing this with a childs toy. So before something happens like a child getting injured or killed lets fix this uncontrollable toy , .....

    Made Apr 2, 2013, sent to the company Apr 10, 2013, published by CPSC Apr 24, 2013

    The product, in the report: Razor E100 Electric Scooter, Model No. 13111260

    The Razor E100 scooter must be “kick started” to at least 3MPH before the motor will engage. Step on the scooter, twist the throttle, and kick to get up to speed. When the unit was new, letting go of the throttle caused the motor to disengage, allowing the scooter to slow down and even coast to a stop. (Pressing the brake lever also disengages the motor.)

    The throttle is now sticking. That is, simply letting go the throttle does not cause the motor to disengage. The rider must now press the brake lever to disengage the motor.

    The E100 scooter is designed for kids (weight limit 120 pounds). This problem with the throttle first occurred when my 11 year old grandson was riding the scooter.

    The unit is just over a year and has had very little use. There are no visible signs of damage, and as far as I know, the unit has never been wrecked or misused.

    I called Razor and they are going to send an “electrical repair kit.” However, I’m not sure that I will trust the unit even after the kit is installed.

    The product, in the report: Razor E100 battery powered scooter. Color=red.

    My son received a Razor battery powered scooter as a gift. Within a few weeks he reported that it was broken. He said that it would not stop or slow down without the brakes. His sister has the exact same scooter, and we knew that while it took a few feet to slow down all the way, it would stop on its own when you released the throttle.

    Also, in order to start this scooter, you had to manually get it to a certain speed and hold the throttle and then the motor kicks in. With my son’s you did not have to hold the throttle. If you simply pushed the scooter, it would start and take off. It was obvious at that point that the throttle was stuck “on.”

    We did not report it sooner because I was not aware of this site or how to report it.
