Kakgold Recalls Remote-Controlled Toy Cars Over Deadly Battery-Ingestion Hazard
About 294 Kakgold 4WD stunt vehicle toys sold on Amazon are being recalled because children can reach batteries in the remote control. Consumers should stop using the toys and request a full refund.
Kakgold is recalling about 294 remote-controlled 4WD stunt vehicle toys because batteries in the remote control can be easily reached by children, according to a recall announced Thursday by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The remotes contain button cell and lithium-ion batteries. The products violate the mandatory toy safety standard, and swallowed button cell or coin batteries can cause severe internal chemical burns, serious injuries or death. No incidents or injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.
The recalled car has a lime green and blue body, a black chassis and four black wheels with lime green trim and diagonal rollers. Its body has checkered patterns, an X design and the words PRO and RACING. A white hang tag reads Do Not Twist the Shaft and includes illustrations marked with red crosses.
The toys were sold on Amazon from July through September 2026 for between $34 and $50. The seller is Shenzhenshi Juteng Lechuang Technology Co., Ltd., doing business as Kakgold.
Consumers should stop using the toys immediately and contact Kakgold at kakrecall@outlook.com for a full refund. The recall instructions ask consumers to write RECALLED on the product and email a photograph showing its disposal. Batteries must be handled separately in accordance with local hazardous-waste disposal or recycling rules.
The CPSC recall number is 27-085. Parents and caregivers can compare the product with the photographs and details in the official recall notice.
