Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Bugaboo Americas has recalled Bugaboo Bee Strollers due to a hazard where the front swivel wheels can lock while the stroller is in motion, causing the stroller to tip and creating a fall risk. The recalled strollers were designed for newborns and toddlers weighing up to 37 pounds and were produced between January 2011 and September 2011. These strollers come in silver or all-black frames with seat colors in black or denim and canopy options including yellow, black, khaki, blue, pink, red, and various special collection colors.

Consumers can identify recalled strollers by checking the date code label on the stroller frame under the seat unit, which displays the production month and year (such as "Jan. 2011"), the Bugaboo Bee name, and the company address. The name "Bugaboo Bee" also appears on the side of the seat backrest. According to the recall notice, affected consumers should immediately stop using the recalled strollers and contact Bugaboo or the retailer where the stroller was purchased to receive free replacement swivel wheels.
