Graco Issues Stroller Recall For Dangerous Hinge

Graco Children’s Products has issued a voluntary recall on three stroller models due to dangerous hinges on the stroller’s canopies. The recalled models are Graco’s Passage, Alano and Spree Strollers and Travel Systems with a plastic hinge mechanism that has notches for different canopy positions. The recall was issued after at least 5 children had fingers amputated by the hinges.

The recalled strollers were manufactured between October 2004 and February 2008 and sold at AAFES, Burlington Coat Factory, Babies R Us, Toys R Us, Kmart, Fred Meyer, Meijers, Navy Exchange, Sears, Target and Walmart from October 2004 to December 2009. The model number and manufacture date is located on the inside portion of the rear frame just below the wheels.

Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the strollers and contact Graco for a free protective cover kit.
