Recall Details
WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Al-Dan Trading Inc. of Miami, Fla. is recalling over 5,800 wooden vehicle toys. The toys have small parts that could separate and present a choking hazard to young children.
CPSC and Al-Dan are not aware of any injuries involving these toys. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury.
The wooden vehicles include trucks, trains, race cars, motorcycles, airplanes, and cranes with parts painted red, blue, green, yellow and/or white. Vehicles range in sizes as small as 5 1/2 inches long and 2 1/2 inches high and as large as 15 inches long and 7 inches high. The small vehicles (trucks, trains, race cars, motorcycles and airplanes) could have a driver in the cab, movable parts, square and hexagon blocks with painted on numerals and letters, and a clock face. The big vehicles all have movable parts like the crane's operable hook, the truck's removable animals, and the locomotive's drive wheel connectors. Some toys may have a warning sticker stating "/!\ WARNING CHOKING HAZARD - small parts not suitable for children under 3 years. NON-TOXIC AND MADE IN CHINA" and/or another sticker stating "18 DANIEL BRAND" with a UPC code number beginning with 69658.
Despite the warning label, these toys present a choking hazard to young children.
These toys were mainly sold in the following Florida discount stores: All for 99 Cents, Always 99 Cents, Dollar Store, Dollar Dave's, Daniel Club Wholesalers, and Swamis Trading from June 1996 through June 1997 for about $1.
Consumers should take the recalled toys away from children immediately and discard or destroy them, or if possible, return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. However, the firm, Al-Dan Trading Inc., does not have contact information at this time.

Related Recalls
The recalled bath seats violate the mandatory standard for infant bath seats because they are unstable and can tip over while in use, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to drowning.
The recalled infant walkers violate the mandatory standard for infant walkers because they can fit through a standard doorway and fail to stop at the edge of a step, posing a deadly fall hazard. In addition, the infant walkers have leg openings that allow the child to slip down until the child's head can become entrapped, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The children’s costumes contain a prohibited phthalate, which violates the federal phthalates ban. Phthalates are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
The wooden button on the soother clips can come off, exposing a sharp screw, which can pose choking and laceration hazards.
The recalled crib bumpers violate the federal crib bumper ban because they can obstruct an infant’s breathing, posing a risk of serious injury or death, due to suffocation. This creates an unsafe sleeping environment for infants. Padded crib bumpers are banned by the Safe Sleep for Babies Act.
The high chairs violate the mandatory standard for high chairs because they were sold without the required attached restraint system, posing a deadly fall hazard to babies. In addition, a child’s head can become trapped in the opening between the seat and tray, posing a deadly entrapment hazard.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
