Safety 1st strollers recalled due to fall hazard

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a safety recall for Dorel Juvenile’s Safety 1st strollers. The products go under the name of Safety 1st Step and Go Travel Systems.

The commission recommends that consumers should immediately stop using the recalled strollers and contact the company for a free repair kit by calling toll free at (866) 762-3036 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.  Eastern Time, Monday through Friday or on the company’s website.

The stroller tray folding mechanism can partially disengage on one side when used with an infant car seat attached to the stroller, posing a fall hazard.

According to the commission, there have been 30 reports of the front tray of the stroller disengaging on one side.

The strollers were sold at Babies R Us and other retailers nationwide and online at amazon.com, babiesrus.com and Walmart.com from May 2015 through June 2016 for between $250 and $300.

No injuries have been reported.
