Riding ATV’s is a popular way to spend time with friends and family, and some parents like to teach their children how to ride and do so safely with an ATV that fits their size much better. 

If you have an electric ATV for your child, is it made by the company that just recalled their units? The recalled vehicles were sold on amazon.com and ebay.com among other sites between September 2023 and October 2024. The average price tag was around one thousand dollars.

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission reported late last week that the Lil Pick Up E-Bully Youth ATV has been recalled for a couple of big issues that do not comply with federal safety guidelines. 

The first is that the handlebars could cause a cut to the rider’s body or head if they were to contact them at a high rate of speed.

The other concern with the E-Bully Youth ATV is that the parking brakes have shown they could give way, which of course could cause a crash.  

If you own one of these Lil Pick Up E-Bully Youth ATV, you are urged to stop using the unit immediately. You should contact Lil Pick Up directly about being able to set up with a free repair so your child can begin to use their ATV again.
