Mother yanks 2 children from electric toy car before it's engulfed in flames
There's got to be more to the story.
It looks like one of the classic "Powerwheels" jeeps that have been sold
for 20+ years. My son had one, and so have numerous friends. I've fixed
them for friends and neighbors for years.
The last time I saw them in the stores, they were still using lead-acid
batteries, which basically can't burn. I don't know of anything in these
toys that would burn light that!
I'm wondering if somone substituted some cheap substandard lithium
battery pack in it?
