I have no idea where you are located, but I assume you're on planet earth. If you're in the United States, file a complaint with the Consumer Product Safety Commission!

Here is a link for you. Do not delay! Take pictures too!

Yes Kettler sell it as a part email . It can also be weided by a platic welder / bumper repair shop. I repaired / reinforced mine with a large stainless steel hose clip.

There should be a nut around the colum that comes up from the wheel and connects to the handlebars that is probably loose. If you can't get it yourself I have found that if you take it to a local bike shop they will fix these things usually for free or at a minimal charge usually less than five bucks. Take to a mom and pops type store you will get better service and like I said they will usually fix these things on the spot for free. hope this helps

This is a common problem for the CTR1, it actually sounds a lot worse than it is. It's just one of the 4 bolts that hold the front "pole" of the CTR1 in place that is broken. You will need to unscrew the bolts at the base (just move the plastic piece that hides the bolts up on the "pole"). After removing the pole you will need to remove the broken bolt from the inside of the "pole" with plyers. Then just put the pole back in the base, replace the screws (be sure to tighten them good). All will be good :)

This is a weak point of the CTR1, be prepared to run into the same problem again down the road...

Take the screw out of the bottom front remove red plastic panel by lifting up on the front, this will allow you to lift front wheels up and to the rear, remove center wheels press the tabs on the left and right side in and remove the cab. One AA battery, reverse steps taken and begin playing.

Kettler has a great customer service staff. Contact them for further assistance. I went to their website and all it shows is to push up on the parental lock in front of the childs steering wheel to unlock it. They did not show any FAQ's pages with any info on what to do if it gets stuck. Hope this helps.

My husband and I just put this trike together and had a similar problem - the front wheel always turned the pedals and we couldn't figure out how to stop this. The manual for the trike is awful and very hard to understand. After spending a LOT of time analyzing the pictures and doing all sorts of weird things to the pedals, I found a posting on a website that said they'd had the same problem, but had removed and re-attached the front wheel and the problem was suddenly fixed. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, we noticed that in one of the manual's pictures that the air valve for the front tire was facing the other direction - we'd actually put the tire on backwards. I took the tire off, put it back on facing the other way, and suddenly it all works as it's supposed to.

The thing is, you actually don't have to "do" anything to change from free to fixed and keep the pedals stable. If my daughter pushes the pedals around, they move around, and if she keeps her feet steady on them, the wheel continues to go around while the pedals stay put. It truly is automatic, which the diagram in the manual does a terrible job of conveying.

Hope this helps someone. We like this trike, but the directions are beastly!
