WASHINGTON, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Pulse Performance Products Electric Quad Youth ATVs. The ATVs are missing parking brakes and all required safety reflectors, which reduces visibility of the youth ATV to other vehicles. Missing both of these features poses a collision hazard. The ATVs' mechanical suspension also fails safety standard requirements, which poses a crash hazard. ATVs that fail to meet the mandatory safety requirements pose a risk of serious injury or death to the rider.
Additionally, the youth ATVs lack a federally mandated, CPSC-approved ATV action plan, required to manufacture, import, sell, or distribute any new assembled or unassembled ATVs in the United States. Federal law requires ATV action plans to ensure that the industry promotes ATV safety, including rider training, dissemination of safety information, age recommendations and other safety measures.
CPSC's latest data show that Off Highway Vehicles (OHVs), including ATVs, are associated with an annual average of more than 800 deaths and an estimated 100,000 emergency department-treated injuries. (Learn more about OHV safety here: OHV & ATV Safety | CPSC.gov)
The seller, Bravo Sports, previously located in Santa Fe Springs, California, is no longer in business and is unable to conduct a recall.
The youth ATVs were sold online at Walmart.com and may have been sold on other websites from February 2019 through June 2024 for about $340. The ATVs are black and have the number "99" in red on the front fender of the ATV. The brand name "PULSE PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS" is written in white on the body of the ATV.
These products were manufactured in China.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the ATVs immediately and dispose of them in accordance with local disposal requirements.Do not sell or give away these hazardous ATVs.
