Graco Duo Tandem Stroller, Graco MetroLite Stroller
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Graco Children's Products Inc. is recalling Duo Tandem strollers manufactured between 1994 and 1999 and certain MetroLite strollers manufactured in 2000 and 2001 because the strollers can fail to latch properly and unexpectedly collapse while in use. This collapse hazard can result in broken bones, cuts, bumps, bruises, and other injuries to children in the stroller and to consumers pushing it. The Duo Tandem strollers are two-seat models with blue, white, or green plastic and steel frames, while the MetroLite strollers have blue, gray, or black plastic and steel frames. Both models have four wheels in front and two wheels in back.
Consumers who own a recalled stroller should stop using it immediately and contact Graco to receive a free repair kit, which will be available in approximately one to two weeks. The kit includes a custom-designed latch that consumers should attach to the stroller's frame to ensure it latches properly. The specific model and serial number ranges affected by the recall are listed in the official notice, and consumers can check the label on their stroller's frame (Duo Tandem) or cross bar under the foot rest (MetroLite) to determine if their stroller is included.
