DYNACRAFT ANNOUNCES INVESTIGATION RESULTS AND FUTURE PLANS FOR THE
12V TONKA MIGHTY DUMP TRUCK
Dynacraft announced today the results of its investigation of an
isolated incident involving a 12V Tonka Mighty Dump Truck product in
Bellingham, Washington in November of 2016. The company was immediately
made aware of the incident and took swift action to thoroughly
investigate the matter and worked cooperatively with the governmental
agencies including the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Dynacraft’s investigation found the exact cause of the fire to be
inconclusive, but throughout an extensive inspection process, the
product’s battery and related components were put through multiple
rounds of rigorous tests to confirm its safety and quality. Ultimately,
the findings indicated that based upon the available evidence and type
of battery (sealed lead acid) involved, the incident in Bellingham,
Washington was an unlikely and isolated event.
Dynacraft is satisfied with the results of the investigation and is
looking forward to reinstating this popular product. “Consumer safety
remains our highest priority and we are proud of our safety record. We
have worked closely with our suppliers in this matter. We are pleased to
announce that the product will be available for purchase at other
retailers this spring,” says John Bisges, Dynacraft Managing Director.
The company is dedicated to providing its customers with safe products
that exceed their expectations for quality and safety, designed to
comply with all statutory and voluntary standards and regulations.
Although this was an isolated incident, Dynacraft is taking great care
to provide customers with the support they need. Should they have any
questions or concerns about their 12V Tonka Mighty Dump Truck, customers
are encouraged to contact Dynacraft at 1-800-551-0032 or via email at service@dynacraftwheels.com.
The popular 12V Tonka Mighty Dump Truck, featuring a functioning dump
and real construction sounds, has been exclusively at Toys “R” Us in
2016. Dynacraft is looking to match the product’s popularity in 2017 by
also making it available for purchase on its own e-commerce website, dynacraftwheels.com.
