If you own a Britax B-Agile or Britax BOB Motion strollers that you ordered from the US or Canada (or Mexico), this news might be relevant to you.
According to CNN, Britax Child Safety Inc. has recalled more than 700,000 strollers with Click & Go receiver mounts (the car seat attachment) due to a fall hazard, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission announced this week.
The recalled strollers are, “folding, single or double occupant strollers and have Click & Go receiver mounts that attach the car seat carrier to the stroller frame,” the recall announcement said.
The models in questions include the Britax B-Agile and BOB Motion strollers when they are used with a travel system with a car seat carrier.
According to CNN, the recall comes after Britax has received 33 reports of car seats detaching from the stroller without warning and falling, causing at least 26 injuries, including scratches, bruises, cuts and bumps to the head.
The recall includes 676,000 strollers sold in the US and an additional 41,100 strollers sold in Canada and Mexico. The recalled strollers have been sold since May 2011 at stores nationwide in the US and Canada, including Babies R Us, Buy Buy Baby and Target, as well as online at Amazon.com, albeebaby.com and diapers.com.
A full list of the recalled models can be found on the CPSC.gov/recalls or on the Britax recall website.
The model number on the stroller itself can be found on the bottom of the stroller frame.
