Maclaren Stroller Recall

This just in.... Maclaren announced it is recalling up to 1 million baby strollers. All strollers were produced between 1999 and 2009.

Why? The company received reports of hinges on the strollers that amputated the fingertips of babies! The company announced that it will send out covers for the hinges to all owners.



A press release is due to come out on Tuesday announcing all the details of the stroller recall.



For the time being, you should probably do the following:



* Stop using all Maclaren strollers immediately;



* When the recall is officially announced on Tuesday, order a hinge cover from Maclaren's website (website should be up and running tomorrow);



* Install the hinge covers before using the stroller again.
