Health Canada, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (US CPSC), and Fred & Friends have jointly recalled the above pacifiers with the following models/UPC:
Components of the Chill Baby Artiste pacifier and the Chill Baby Volume pacifier can detach, posing a choking hazard to infants, while the Baby Chill Volume and Baby Chill Panic Button pacifiers have ventilation holes that are too small.
While there have been no incidents or injurires reported in Canada, Fred & Friends has received one report of a part on the Baby Chill Volume pacifier detaching.
Customers are advised to immediately remove the pacifiers from infants, and return them to Fred & Friends for a $12 USD refund.
