How to tell if yours is affected
Check the model number and identifying labels described in the official notice before acting. If the details match, treat it as affected. When in doubt, contact the company.
What to do
Consumers should stop using the remote-controlled car toys immediately and contact Kakgold for information on how to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write “RECALLED” on the product and email a photograph showing the product being properly disposed of in the trash to [email protected].
Note: Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
Safe disposal (lithium-ion battery)
This device contains a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Do not put it in the trash, curbside recycling, or store battery-drop boxes. Contact your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) center and ask if they accept recalled lithium-ion batteries or devices.
What this means for your family
A recall means the issue was caught and the company must make it right, usually at no cost to you. Take the item away from children now, follow the official remedy below, and keep the model and date details handy when you contact the company.
For families, the practical part is simple: pause use first, then verify the exact product details before deciding whether yours is included. Many children's recalls involve narrow model numbers, date ranges, labels, or online sellers, so a quick label check can prevent both unnecessary worry and missed action. If the product was a gift or hand-me-down, share the official notice with the person who bought it so they can help with order records or refund steps.
