Everyone wants the kids in their lives to have fun and hopefully not get hurt, right? That's why a safety recall of things where there are multiple potential issues that someone should have spotted earlier is tough to write about, and that's especially true when one kid apparently died before this recall got issued.
It's made even worse by the fact that the same company had a very similar recall for some other youth ATVs in its lineup almost exactly one year ago. My colleague Robbie Bacon's take back then was that the first recall "made you seriously question [this company's] credibility."
What, I wonder, does a second very similar recall do, other than reinforce the idea that it must not have learned its lesson?
