Recall: Graco Quattro & MetroLite Strollers


Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe Stroller - Brunswick - GRO086Graco MetroLite Stroller

I saw this on the local news last night and wanted to pass the information on to you.

Here is another recall. This one is for Graco Quattro and MetroLite Strollers

The Consumer Product Safety Commission and Graco Children's Products Inc. have issued a recall of about two million Graco strollers due to risk of entrapment and strangulation. Entrapment and strangulation can occur, especially in infants younger than 12 months of age, when a child is not harnessed. The infant can pass through the opening between the stroller tray and seat bottom, but his or her head and neck can become entrapped. The recall involves strollers and travel systems distributed between November 2000 and December 2007. Click here for a complete list of recalled model numbers. The model numbers are printed on a label at the lower portion of the rear frame.

If you have one, immediately stop using the recalled stroller and contact Graco for a free repair kit. To order your repair kit, contact Graco toll-free at 877-828-4046 anytime or visit their website!
