08113 · Recalled 2007-12-11 · CPSC page
Description
Only Xplory® baby strollers with serial numbers 1 through 27,295 and 27,698 through 28,097 and with gray handles are included in the recall. The serial number is located under the foot plate. Strollers with white handles are not included in this recall.
Hazards
A bolt that attaches each front wheel to the stroller can loosen, causing one of the front wheels to fall off, posing a fall hazard to young children.
Reported injuries
The firm has received 14 reports of one of the front wheels falling off, including one incident where a child received a scratch when she toppled out of the stroller. In addition, there were 244 reports outside of the United States of one of the front wheels falling off.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the recalled strollers immediately and contact Stokke to arrange for a free replacement of the front wheels. Stokke will contact all known purchasers by e-mail or regular mail. Stokke notified its retailers and posted a recall notice on its Web site in May 2007.
