Toy giant Fisher-Price has announced a voluntary recall of roughly 44,000 children's Power Wheels Barbie Dream Campers over a potential "injury hazard.”
In a notice posted to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's website, the company said Tuesday it has received 17 complaints that the vehicle continues to move even after the foot pedal is released. However, no injuries have been reported at this time.
