The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation Baby Jogger, today announced a voluntary recall of about 10,600 Baby Jogger City Versa™ strollers because the stroller frame can fail to lock in place and collapse while in use, posing a fall hazard to children in the stroller.
Baby Jogger has received six reports of incidents with the stroller’s frame failing to lock. No injuries have been reported.
