Segway is recalling about 220,000 scooters in the U.S. due to a fall hazard caused by a faulty folding mechanism. The Ninebot Max G30P and Max G30LP KickScooters have had 68 reported failures, resulting in 20 injuries including abrasions, bruises, lacerations, and broken bones. Consumers are advised to stop using the scooters immediately and contact Segway for a free maintenance kit to inspect and adjust the locking mechanism. The scooters were sold at retailers like Best Buy, Costco, Walmart, Target, and online at Segway.com and Amazon.com between January 2020 and February 2025, with prices ranging from $600 to $1,000. Customers should periodically check and tighten the folding mechanism to prevent accidents.
