WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation with Baby Jogger LLC, has announced a voluntary recall of the about 1,545 of the company's Baby Jogger Jump Seats in the United States, and another 450 in Canada.
If the Jump Seat does not properly lock into place, the Jump Seat could disengage from the stroller allowing the child to fall out. Baby Jogger has received four reports of children falling from the seat, including reports of scrapes, bruises, cuts and one broken nose.
This recall includes the Baby Jogger Jump Seat. The Jump Seat is a fabric seat accessory with the name "Baby Jogger" on the front that is attached to the mounting bracket on the frame of a Baby Jogger City Elite, Baby Jogger City Classic or Baby Jogger Summit stroller and allows a toddler and baby to ride together in the same stroller at the same time. The item number is printed on the product packaging.
Item: Numbers J7J50
The Jump Seats were sold at juvenile products stores, mass merchandisers, and department stores nationwide and on the Web from January 2008 through July 2010 for about $100.
Consumers should immediately stop using the Jump Seat and contact Baby Jogger to receive Jump Seat safety straps and assembly instructions.
