What to do
Consumers should stop using these cars immediately, remove the batteries from the remote controlled race cars and the remote controls and return the remote controlled race cars and remote controls to the Texaco station where purchased, for a full refund. Consumers also may return the items for a full refund, by obtaining a prepaid shipping label by calling Equity Marketing Inc.
