Stop using your MacLaren stroller until you get this

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 02:47:06 GMT

MacLaren US, makers of popular umbrella strollers have issued a massive recall of all strollers sold in the US since 1999 - over a million strollers. Apparently, due to a problem with the hinge design, some children have got their fingers caught in the mechanism and actually ended up having their fingers amputated. As a result, MacLaren has issued a voluntary recall, and is providing both consumers and retailers a joint cover kit to cover the problem hinge area. This should eliminate the risk of future injury - at least the serious type reported today. Until you receive your repair kit, MacLaren is suggesting you stop using your stroller. News to date is only for the US. At this point, there is no confirmed recall of MacLaren strollers outside of the US. Nor has there been any confirmation of this issue occurring with the special needs strollers series, Major Elite. In fact, the special needs strollers are not even included in the list provided by the official notice from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Here's what they said:

"Description: This recall involves all Maclaren single and double umbrella strollers. The word Maclaren is printed on the stroller. The affected models included Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, TechnoXLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller. Sold at: BabiesRUs, Target and other juvenile product and mass merchandise retailers nationwide from 1999 through November 2009 for between $100 and $360. For more details click on the link below
