Bugaboo Strollers Recalled Due To Fall And Choking Hazard

January 21, 2013

As a Buffalo and Western New York injury attorney who represents people who are injured using products, I am especially concerned when children become involved. Recently the Consumer Product Safety Commission and Target stores issued a recall for the Bugaboo Cameleon and Bugaboo Donkey Model Strollers with detachable carrycots/seats. Strollers included in the recall have a serial number that falls within the range listed below. Serial numbers are printed on the stroller’s chassis, located under the carrycot/seat.

Bugaboo Cameleon
Serial Number 04011090900001 to 04031101009999
Serial Number 08011090900001 to 08021100800386
Serial Number 140100093600531 to 140103123350418

Bugaboo Donkey
Serial Number 170101105300001 to 170104130900500

A button on the stroller’s carrycot/seat carry handle can become disengaged and cause the handle to detach, posing fall and choking hazards to young children. Bugaboo has received 58 reports of carry handles detaching.

Consumers should immediately remove the carry handle from the strollers and contact Bugaboo for a free replacement handle. Consumers can continue to use the strollers while awaiting the replacement handle.

Consumer Contact: Bugaboo International; at (800) 460-2922, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or online at www.bugaboo.com and click on “Important Quality Initiative” for more information. Consumers can email the firm at [email protected]
