URBAN626 is recalling all models of its URB-E electric scooter, affecting approximately 1,200 units. A bolt located beneath the seat can crack while the scooter is being ridden, causing the seat to fail and the rider to fall. There have been three reports of incidents, including one person who sustained a scraped knee. These foldable scooters are made of aluminum and carbon fiber and were sold in black, gray, or white through URBAN626 stores and online at Amazon.com and URB-E.com between August 2015 and June 2016.
The bolt situated below the seat can crack or break during use, which can cause the seat to collapse and result in the rider falling from the scooter. Three incidents have already been reported, including one injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled units and contact URBAN626 for a free repair kit. URBAN626 will reimburse consumers if they choose to have a bike repair shop replace the bolt.
