Yvolve Sports is recalling about 10,000 Neon Nitro 8 self-balancing, single-wheeled electric skateboards because the tire can unexpectedly deflate. This defect can cause the rider to lose balance and fall. The skateboards are black with green circuit-board patterns and have "Neon" printed on the deck. They were sold at Walmart, Toys "R" Us, and Amazon.com between October 2017 and September 2018 for approximately $500. Consumers should stop using the skateboard immediately and contact the manufacturer for a free permanent warning label and updated tire inflation instructions.
The skateboard's tire can lose air pressure during use, which destabilizes the self-balancing mechanism. The firm has received 128 reports of flat tires, which poses a significant fall and injury hazard to the user.
Consumers should stop using the skateboards immediately and contact Yvolve Sports to receive a new permanent warning label and updated instructions on how to properly inflate the tire. New instructions can also be obtained through the firm's website at https://www.neonlyghts.com/pub/media/manuals/Neon_Nitro_8_IM.pdf
