Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20200109-86FA9-2147375496. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Skidding UD2196A (Remote control car). Incident: My son received a remote control stunt car made by Zhengguang (model UD2196A) that was purchased online. We charged the car as instructed in the manual and put new batteries in the remote. Shortly after he started using it, within minutes, it stopped working properly. It wouldn�t react to what he was telling it to do, it was doing its own thing. I asked my son to check and make sure the batteries in the remote were new and installed correctly. He said were installed correctly, but when he went to replace them they were so hot he couldn�t take them out. I verified that they were installed correctly and they were so hot that I almost burned my fingers trying to get them out. I removed the batteries in the remote and the car. I was afraid that it was going to cause a fire. I attempted to reach out to the company but they have not responded back to me.
