Reason the product is recalled
Affected Buggies have pins with yellow knobs on the back of the Buggy. The yellow knob pin can become loose and allow the handle to separate from the Buggy. Buggies with handles attached with a bolt and screw are not affected.
The hazards to consumers
If the handle becomes detached from the Buggy, the adult would not have control over the Buggy. If a child is in the Buggy when the handle detaches, the Buggy could roll away from the adult.
What consumers should do
Consumers should inspect their Buggy. If the Buggy has a pin with a yellow plastic knob, immediately stop using the Buggy and contact your local retailer for a repair kit. Do not use the Buggy until the repair kit is installed.
