When in vehicle mode, does two small, sharp screws poke out of the bottom of the vehicle? Wondering if this is normal on all of the Heatwaves.

We have had the same problem. Ruined a coffee table and hardwood floors... Writing Hasbro and maybe returning a favorite toy....UPDATE: Contacted Hasbro via live chat on their website. Gave them the numbers from inside the legs and told them the issue. Also said others mentioned it on Amazon. They are replacing for free. They sent a prepaid envelope to send him back in so they can see the issue. I also had an issue with Bumblebee not closing all the way in vehicle mode. They are sending me a new one of that one as well without me having to return it.

When it's in firetruck mode, ours does have two screws on the bottom, but they are level with the plastic. It appears that the sharp ends are probably supposed to be filed down or cut off before being packaged.

not at all, I gave it to my 3 years old kid but my 1 year old baby can safely play it too

I don't have this problem with the two sharp screws on my son's Heatwave. I believe I'm seeing the screws referred to however the screws don't protrude and are smooth to the touch.

This has happened to ours as well. We've tapped them back in a couple times. I think I'm going to contact Hasbro. Everyone else that is having this problem should too. The company should know about this so they can fix it.

mine does that. they are pins for the legs to rotate out to stand in robot mode. I pushed it back in but it keeps coming back out. I might try to use locktite or superglue at the ends to lock in place.

For us, they showed up after a few weeks of playing with the toy. I simply took a small hammer and tapped them back in so they are flush the grey plastic. If it happens again, I will dab a bit of gorilla glue on them to keep them in place.

They are on my sons to. And oddly enough i didnt notice them until i actually looked for them.

No. it's not normal. I see what you are talking about but on my sons the ends of the screws are flat against the plastic so when I rub my fingers over them they do not poke out. I would return/exchange the one you have.

I'm just a shade tree mechanic...if that. It definitely sounds like he hooked something up wrong. I did it myself and the only issue I had was with the screws that hold the fuel rails (1 snapped off at the head). Sorry I couldn't help.

I had that problem on the highway once. Really gotta make sure the windsheild channel is on correctly and top is inserted all the way. I have not had that problem since and i drive on the highway a good amount

Got any pictures? I remember feeling like I was stretching it a bit when I first installed it. It's also much easier in warmer weather. I could maybe help out more if I saw pictures and better understood the problem.

I never had a problem, it just screwed right in. I just unscrewed it to check: the bottom part definitely has threads on the outside of the pole part and the middle pole has threads on the inside. Must be defective. :( Have them send you another.

The little thing that sticks out underneath the clips needs to be secure against your dashboard. I know this is kinda vague but I hope it helps and fixes your problem.

I have mine on a center mount and when down the end of the trolley and about 1/3 of the tag mounting plate stick out from the vehicle. They are black so minimally distracting. Don't know about the manual version.

Gee Joyce, I've not had this problem. Maybe one of the adhesive strips is not completely adhering to the vehicle?Possibly contact the manufacturer - they contacted us rather quickly. Good luck

All went well, perfectly, for me. There are well hidden screw holes atop your vehicle, which are exposed by removing small metal plugs. I used a torque wrench, because I had one. Is it necessary???

I clip the fan to my sun visor, never even noticed the screws. I used to have a mounted fan like this that my husband attached to dash. I prefer using it on visor, so I can adjust and move as I need. If was not put together properly, not sure what you do. Sorry

Hi Paul, Unfortunately, nothing can be done to avoid this. It's just something that happens with lugs. Thank you for the inquiry and have a great day!

Well...Since it is December I haven't ridden at all. MY issue is that I am wondering whether or not to take the baffles out. It's easy to do.. Heat shields? Never seen em. They do get hot though.

It happened to me too. I used an old credit card (or something similar that won't scratch your windshield) to gently take it off. There was a black rubber circle on the windshield. I took my car to a glass repair shop and they took it off easily. The suction mount was slightly damaged, but it still attaches to the windshield (although the grip feels weaker).

I think it would mean that the rearview sensor needs a special cut out or something in the heat shield. See if you can find a front & back view of that type of mirror on-line
