Go-karts sold under the Manco, Phoenix, Fox, Rattler and Coyote labels

Published August 11, 2026 · Recall initiated: August 14, 2000

What's the hazard

These go-karts have guards designed to help prevent entanglements, but riders' long hair or loose clothing still can become entangled in partially exposed rotating components behind the drivers' seats, causing death or serious injury.

What to do

Consumers should stop using these go-karts immediately and call Manco for a free repair kit with instructions for easy installation. Consumers also can contact any Manco dealer to get free installation of the repair kit.
