New York (CNN Business) A US government agency issued an "urgent warning" for users of Peloton's Tread+ following multiple dangerous incidents with the machine, including a child's death. The CPSC said it's urging customers with small children and pets to stop using the machine immediately. Peloton CEO John Foley sent a letter to Tread+ owners at the time, saying the warning comes after a "tragic accident involving a child and the Tread+, resulting in, unthinkably, a death." Peloton said there's "no reason" to stop using the machine if safety instructions, such as correctly using its safety key, are followed. It also said that the Tread+ should be kept away from children under 16 years old and pets "at all times."
