Car Recalls: Why They Happen and What Buyers Should Know
Why do car recalls occur? Here’s what you need to know if your car has an open recall.
Approximately 5,000 youth ATVs are being recalled after a 6-year-old died in an accident while riding them.
This recall notice was announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission on Thursday, April 23rd.
This recall affects approximately 4,900 Rex110 and Sierra110 youth all-terrain vehicles. The vehicle was imported by Lil Pickup of Rowland Heights, California and manufactured in Vietnam.
According to the notice, the ATV did not meet the maximum speed limit for ATVs intended for children 6 years of age and older.
In addition, mechanical suspensions do not meet safety requirements and may cause the throttle to stick. All of the aforementioned issues can lead to a collision, increasing the risk of serious injury or death, the notice states.
The surfaces under your ATV’s feet can be hot, putting you at risk for severe burns.
Other than the death, no other incidents were reported.
What exactly are the ATV products being recalled?
ATVs were sold under two model names and multiple brand names.
According to the notice, the model name “Rex110” or “Sierra110” is written on the VIN plate on the front frame pillar.
ATVs can also be identified by the brand names “Seangles,” “MOTOTEC,” “OFFROAD MALL,” or “EXTREME” located on the side body and/or handlebar cover of the ATV.
A plate on the front frame column states, “This ATV is subject to a LIL PICK UP INC action plan approved by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.”
Where was the recalled ATV sold?
The ATV was sold online and in stores.
Retailers that sold the products include Cougar Cycle, Texas Star DBA Flying Scooter, Vitacci Motorcycles, ODES USA, BV Powersports, Tool Store Go-Kart Shop, Offroad Mall, and Triple J Imports.
ATV colors are black, blue, silver, green, orange, pink, burgundy, spider black, spider blue, spider red, green camo, purple camo, and pink camo.
The Rex110 ATV was sold from January 2023 to November 2025, and the Sierra110 ATV was sold from January 2024 to January 2026 for $600 to $800, the notice states.
