EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboard Fire Lawsuit Lawyers

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a critical warning, urging consumers to cease the usage of EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboards immediately due to their potential fire hazard. This advisory follows a reported incident in May 2023, where a fire originating from an EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboard caused significant damage to a residential building in New York City.

Manufactured by Jinhua Smart Electric Technology Co. Ltd. in China, these hoverboards are available in black, blue, or pink variants, prominently displaying the EVERCROSS branding on their fronts. Sold online through various platforms including Amazon.com, eBay.com, Likesporting.com, Lowes.com, Newegg.com, Ridefaboard.com, and Walmart.com, these hoverboards were priced between $180 and $300 from July 2021 to the present.

Despite the reported incident and CPSC’s warning, EVERCROSS has not initiated a recall of the affected hoverboards nor offered any solution to consumers regarding the fire hazard.

CPSC emphasizes the immediate removal of battery packs from the hoverboards and their safe disposal following local hazardous waste disposal procedures. It’s crucial never to discard lithium batteries in regular trash or recycling bins but to instead take them to designated battery recyclers or hazardous waste collection centers to mitigate environmental and safety risks.

Consumers are strongly encouraged to report any incidents related to these hoverboards or any product-related injuries via www.SaferProducts.gov.

Individual Commissioners associated with CPSC may provide additional statements regarding this issue or other pertinent topics. For further information or statements from commissioners, please visit www.cpsc.gov/commissioners.

The use of EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboards poses a significant risk of fire, as evidenced by the reported incident resulting in substantial property damage. Victims harmed by these hoverboards may seek legal recourse through a product liability lawsuit to recover damages for their injuries and losses.

Victims of EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboard-related injuries may suffer severe harm, including burns, smoke inhalation, property damage, and emotional distress. The defective nature of these hoverboards, combined with the manufacturer’s failure to address the fire hazard, underscores the urgency for affected individuals to pursue legal action.

A product liability lawsuit concerning injuries caused by EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboards typically involves establishing the defectiveness of the product and its direct role in causing the harm suffered by the victim. Given CPSC’s warning and the reported incident, there is substantial evidence to support such claims.

The lawsuit process begins with victims consulting experienced attorneys specializing in product liability cases. Attorneys play a pivotal role at every stage of the legal process, offering their expertise to navigate complex legal proceedings and advocate for the rights of victims.

Attorneys gather evidence, conduct investigations, and assess the extent of damages incurred by the victim to build a robust case against the responsible parties, including the manufacturer and distributors of the defective hoverboards. Their legal representation is indispensable in negotiating settlements or litigating the case in court to secure fair compensation for the victim.

In a product liability lawsuit concerning EVERCROSS EV5 hoverboards, victims may recover various types of damages, including medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. Additionally, punitive damages may be awarded to deter similar misconduct by the defendant in the future.
