Tesla, the automotive company of billionaire businessman Elon Musk, launched its first ATV Cyberquad about a year ago. According to the company, this ATV was even suitable for children. However, US officials think that this is not the case. Because the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has decided to recall some ATVs.
Cyberquad appeared as a steel-bodied ATV that could reach a speed of 16 km / h. The authorities, who examined the electric ATV, concluded that the mechanical suspension and maximum tire pressure of some ATVs did not comply with the standards. As a result, as many as 5,000 Cyberquads will be recalled.
The $1,900 sales payment will be fully refunded!
Cyberquad was produced by a company called Radio Flyer on behalf of Tesla. Making statements after the CPSC’s decision, the company stated that the use of the ATVs in question should be stopped. The company announced that the $1,900 payment for the ATVs to be recalled will be fully refunded.
By the way; It should be noted that there are no children harmed due to the use of Cyberquad. At least with regard to the problem CPSC identified… But there has been only one injury so far. A Cyberquad ridden with a child and an adult overturned, resulting in injury, according to a report to Radio Flyer. There was no defect in the company in this accident.
