"Cars" Toy Chests Sold at Toys "R" Us Recalled by Delta Enterprise Due to Lead Poisoning Hazard

"Cars" Toy Storage Benches

CPSC
The CPSC and Delta Enterprise Corp., New York, N.Y. are recalling about 3,000 "Cars" Toy Storage Benches which were sold at Toys "R" Us stores from March 2006 through August 2006 for about $50, because 'the red paint on the partition panels of the toy box contains high levels of lead. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.'

According to the CPSC recall alert, 'the wooden toy storage box is decorated with graphics from the animated movie "Cars." It has three removable cloth toy bins. "Delta" and the PO# are printed on the side panel. Only toy boxes with "PO#FJ505192" or "PO#FJ605042" marked on the side panel are included in this recall.'

Consumers should take the toy chests away from their children and can all Delta Enterprise at (877) 660-3777 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at www.deltachildrensproducts.com for information about how to get a refund or credit.
