On May 6, 2008, TJ Power Sports LLC recalled about 400 Twister Hammerhead Dune Buggies after receiving a report from a consumer about a seat belt breaking, resulting in nerve damage to the consumers’ right arm. The recalled dune buggies have a seat belt that may break during impact or stress, which poses an ejection hazard and injury hazard to both the driver and passenger.
Twister Hammerhead Dune Buggies with model number UM130IIR and model year 2004 are included in the recall. They were sold in red, blue, or green, and with the words ?Twister Hammerhead,? the model number, and the model year imprinted on the bar behind the driver and passenger seats.
Twister dealers nationwide sold the recalled TJ Power Sports Dune Buggies from July 2004 through December 2004 for about $3,000. Online retailers also sold the buggies.
Consumers who own a recalled Twister Hammerhead Dune Buggy should immediately stop using it and contact TJ Power Sports at 877-857-7678 for instructions on how to receive a replacement seat belt. For more information, customers may also visit the company’s website.
