Approximately 14,400 UPPAbaby strollers are being recalled due to the risk of amputating children’s fingers.
According to a press release from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the rear brakes on the brand’s All-Terrain Ridge Jogging strollers have “openings that can cause amputation or laceration if a non-occupant child’s fingertip becomes caught in the openings while the stroller is in use.”
According to the agency, there has been one reported incident in which a child who was not in the stroller had their fingertip amputated. The $600 stroller is available from Amazon, BuyBuyBaby, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Pottery Barn Kids, among others.
The strollers in question have serial numbers that begin with “1401RDGUS” on the right side above the rear wheel. The strollers have a black frame and are available in three fabric colors: white, charcoal, and slate blue.
Customers who are affected should discontinue the use of the strollers and contact UPPAbaby for free replacement brake discs for both wheels. UPPAbaby did not respond immediately to CNN Business’ request for comment.
