Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Everything's A Dollar, Inc. is recalling 9,382 Big Wooden Trucks that were sold for $1 each at more than 200 retail locations nationwide. The wooden trucks, measuring 5.5 inches long with red wheels and featuring a yellow-hatted driver figure, pose a choking hazard because the driver, wheel, and axle pieces can detach. The trucks came in three styles with different bead or disc features and are labeled with "LIDCO, North York, Ontario Canada" and SKU 58188. No injuries have been reported, and the recall was initiated after Kentucky's Product Safety Branch identified the hazard during an inspection.
According to the recall notice, affected consumers should immediately take the trucks away from children under three years of age and discard or destroy the products. The source does not specify any other remedy, such as a refund or replacement program.
