Strollers Recalled by Maclaren Caused Amputations
November 2009
Almost 1 million Maclaren strollers have been recalled after at
least 12 reported finger amputations. The amputations occurred when
babies or toddlers got their fingers stuck in the strollers' hinges.
The following models are included in the recall: Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, Techno XLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller. They were sold in the United States at retailers such as Target and Babies R Us and open with an "umbrella" mechanism.
Consumers are urged to stop using the dangerous products immediately and to contact Maclaren for a free repair kit.
