Why it's dangerous
InjuriesSuffocation
The toy becomes loose upon use, creating a space between the left wheel and the body of the toy. A child could trap their fingers in this space and injure themselves. Furthermore, the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. If a child plays with it, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose, causing the child to suffocate.
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1
