On September 3, 2016, In purchased the Guerilla Wagon from Home Depot. As soon as I opened the box I noticed the awful smell. I realized it was the tires. The smell gave me a sever headache and caused my face to burn. I thought the smell would go away after a couple of days but it did not. The smell is strong and can be smelled from several meters away. I will be returning the product immediately. Store SKU 824220

Product is : MAC SPORTS HEAVY DUTY STEEL FRAME COLLAPSIBLE FOLDING 150 POUND CAPACITY OUTDOOR BEACH GARDEN UTILITY WAGON The issue is: THE ENGINEERING AND DESIGN OF THIS WAGON IS SUBSTANDARD AND UNACCEPTABLE. IT IS COMPLETELY UNSTABLE, EVEN ON FLAT SURFACES, AND CAN REPRESENT A SERIOUS HAZARD TO USERS AND DAMAGE TO CARTED CONTENTS. • With a 3-point wheel configuration, the slightest turn of the centered front wheel assembly causes the wagon to topple sideways. It cannot “be pulled across multiple surfaces.” It is totally unstable on beach sand and even on flat road surfaces. If the slightest turn is made the wagon topples over sideways. • The attachment of the handle to the front wheel axle instead of the wagon frame causes the wagon to have a front lift when the handle is grasped at waist height. This tilt causes the wagon to topple backwards and/or collapse (foldup) at the point of any modest elevation or uneven surface. • On any encounter with a rise of elevation, even a slight ramp from ground to a 2x6 walking deck, the wagon topples backward and/or sideways, emptying its contents. • Mac Sports does not provide sufficient warning to "Never place a child in this wagon." Wagon has an interior box length of only 33” and the side walls are only 10 ½”. Beach chairs will not fit in the box and/or will be unstable (top-heavy). Pulling this wagon while crossing roads may result in upset of contents and exposure to traffic issues. Mac Sports does not provide sufficient warnings about hazards in use of this wagon, misrepresents the wagon's utility. Injuries and damages to property may occur.

I purchased a kayak cart to transport my kayak to a nearby river. I purchased the cart available here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0082365AQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 from River Colony Trading Company. After inflating and instilling the two tires as instructed, I strapped my kayak to the cart. I turned around to pick up my water bottle, and heard an explosion. The inner tube burst and shattered the plastic hub on the wheel. The plastic parts were strewn as far as 3-5 feet. Had I been standing closer, I likely would have been injured. Upon contacting the company, it seemed unconcerned about the safety hazard.

[REDACTED] I about [REDACTED] years ago I was made aware of a child who died while trying to climb on one of our products. I also learned there had been multiple other children who had similar incidents where they also perished as results to their injuries. As far as I know all lawsuits were settled. In each case heavy items were placed on top of these products. and a small child was either able to pull it down or a component failed causing the cart to collapse on the child. Since the [REDACTED] incident I have a sense of guilt for not pushing my supervisors harder to recall the products. They felt it wasn't necessary and feared the financial cost if they do have to recall the product. They also didn't want this information disclosed to the rest of the employees in the company. Today they still have weight ratings on their products I know are unsafe and false. I feel this should be looked into as there are 10,000- 100,000 units if not more in our public schools. I am giving my best guess on when I first learned about this. There are legal cases for every instance. I can also provide a lot more history on this if and their testing processes if the agency feels it is necessary. [REDACTED]

2 metal pieces on utility wagon snapped in half resulting in extremely sharp dangerous edges

EZ Entry Horse Cart manufactured by Tough-1 Company and sold by Stateline Tack has manufacturing defects which could result in injury. Shafts are manufactured incorrectly, (shafts turn in instead of out), and one shaft does not fit inside the other part correctly, resulting in a tear in the metal piece over time. Also, there is no pre-drilled hole into which to fasten a bolt which secures the seat. This could result in throwing the driver out of the seat, should the cart hit a bump. Defects have caused issues with the cart identified by professional horse driving instructor on the below date.
