Kolcraft Strollers Recalled

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation with Kolcraft, have announced a voluntary recall of the Contours Options three- and four-wheeled strollers. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

A child or consumer's finger can become caught in the opening formed when locking and unlocking the hinge mechanism which is used to adjust the handlebars on the strollers. This presents an amputation and laceration hazard to children and the adults handling the stroller.

Kolcraft and CPSC have received five reports of injuries involving the hinge mechanism, including reports of three children whose fingertips were amputated and two adults whose fingers were either smashed or lacerated.

For additional information, please contact Kolcraft at (800) 453-7673 between 5 a.m. and 3:45 p.m. PT Monday through Thursday, 5 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. PT Friday, or click here.
