Health Canada and Dorel Distribution Canada have recalled Safety 1st Jogging Strollers manufactured prior to 2005 (models 01-555CYB and 01-555CSBC) due to fracture hazard. When a child is placed in the stroller in the rear-facing mode, their leg can become caught between the wheel and the stroller frame.
Dorel Distribution Canada has received seven reports of incidents, six of which resulted in fracture and one sprain, while Health Canada received four reports of incidents, one of which resulted in a leg fracture.
Customers should immediately stop using the recalled stroller in the rear-facing mode and contact Dorel Distribution Canada to obtain a repair kit and to visit Dorel's website to determine if their stroller model is among those recalled.
For more information, consumers may contact Dorel Distribution Canada toll free at 1-800-544-1108 Monday to Thursday between 8AM and 6PM ET and between 8AM and 4:30PM ET on Fridays in order to receive a free repair kit or by email at consumer@djgusa.com.
