I had one of those early K-Line heavyweight cars catch fire, but I shut the power off before it melted the car.  However, I had no idea they were ever recalled.  The dealer I bought them from, it was a NYC coach, was present at my house when it happened, and he never told me they were recalled and I didn't get a notice.  I will take them apart and check them out if I run them again.

Miles, What year did this occur?  You would have not received a personal notice as there isn't a way to track a toy.The factory recall was about 1994 for cars manufactured a few years before then.  The notice was in the hobby magazines as well as some newspapers.  Many hobby stores posted flyers or had them available.  The manufacturer did not take it lightly.   John in Lansing, ILL
