Baja Motor Sports Blaster 65 Go-Kart is a piece of junk Phoenix Arizona

I purchased a Blaster 65 Go-Kart from Pep Boys in November 2007. It was a Christmas gift for my kids. Pep Boys did the assembly and there was a part missing. It took a month to get the part. They also shipped the wrong gas cap for the cart so fuel leaked while driving it creating a very dangerous situation. We had about 2 hours on the vehicle, when it stopped going forward. It needed a new clutch, fortunately it was under warranty. Once that was repaired, we brought it to our summer camp in another state.

The kids were riding and the front steering knuckle snapped and made it impoosible to turn the wheel. That was replaced because I emailed Pep Boys and told them how dissatisfied I was with this purchase. They acquired the parts for me. I repaired the Go-Kart and it was rideen for 1/2 hour and the Drive Belt burned out, putting it on the sidelines again.

Complaints sent to Baja go unanswered, phone calls to order parts force me to be on the phone for 25-45 on Hold. I feel ripped off and so annoyed that this thing is such a piece of crap.

Please don't buy from Baja, they don't stand behind their products, parts are made in China and are hard to come by and when it breaks after the warranty period, you are on your own.
