Has anyone had a hard time getting their back wheels to stay in place? We bought two of these and can't get the wheels in right.

We bought three of these, one for each grandchild. The wheels were tough to get in but after watching the video my husband got them in and we haven't had any trouble with them staying in place. Don't be afraid to really use some strength on them. Make sure you have them in the correct position, it almost seemed to me that you are putting them in backwards. Once they click into place they are locked in and stay. Good Luck and I hope you get this mastered. The grandkids as well as the adults have had hours if fun riding these.

Yes it is very hard to get the wheels on. What you have to do press really hard and move the wheel right to left at the same time while you're pushing it in. Cnce there are in you ain't getting them out. Hope it works out for you.

I didn't have that problem. However, I've read in reviews that the wheel does loosen up. Actually, now that I think about it, it has gotten a lot looser.

We haven't had our child in it yet but our front wheels moved when we were playing with it. Maybe double check your rods in the front end.

Are the wheels free rolling or spinable by hand? Sometimes the cover would get in the way, so we just leave it off. Also make sure it's being rolled at the right angle.

Mine is fine, but one wheel keeps popping off!! Sorry you cart is ripping. Gorilla glue?

Just finished putting the bike together and am having the same problem. The seat is ridiculously loose, it rotates around and flexes up and down as I'm riding. It almost seems like it's intentionally built this way. Have either of you been able to fix this problem since you posted? Or are you just dealing with it? Thanks

Mine has been wobbling like crazy every since I put it together. I've taken it apart, and reassembled twice, and it's never gotten better. I've tried to find a way to cross-brace it in the back, but the legs are metal, and I don't have the tools to get through it.

Make sure you have the disk/flange underneath the base seated correctly. Once it is seated you should be able to tighten it up and it won't move any more. From time to time we have to tighten ours up after a month or two of play. Hope this helps.

Make sure the wheels are snapped on...I did this also, but if you give the wheels a solid push, a very definite click sounds and the wheels do not come off. Press hard to be sure they are clicked on, not just put on.

we didn't have this problem. thething we had a problem with was the turning radius of the front tires...without wobbling. They sent us new tires..that eliminated the problem.

We don't have this problem. We did have to push it hard into position but once it's in, it fits securely... Sorry to hear that you have this problem....

I had trouble getting the wheels in too. I lubed the wheel shafts with WD40 with my fingers and as I was putting the wheels in with the chair upside down. I used a hammer & screwdriver on bottom of the wheels. Gently hitting the screwdriver. Wheels went in fine then.

I had the same problem, my wheel was not centered either but it still worked fine for me. I had no problems using the wheel.

Didn't have that problem, Lilo but might you look at all 4 wheels to make sure that they are installed with the bars on the inside of the wheel and the safety bar is not being engaged when you try to close it. I'll look at mine tomorrow and see if I can give you any other suggestions.

We had an issue with the bike only going in reverse. We had to take the seat off and check the wiring, it was loose. I would suggest doing the same. I eventually sold the 2 I bought for $5 at a garage sale. The back wheel never stayed on. Worst money I ever spent. Good luck and I hope your child does enjoy their toy.

Just assembled it. Right wheel was squeaking. I unscrewed both the wheels and noticed the one squeaking is loose because it was defective. Unscrew just the 2 wheels and compare side by side, check if one of them has a deeper hole or not. Will be trying to order the defective part. Wish me luck.
