Summary

FXR Factory Racing is recalling approximately 420 children's jackets and hoodies because they have drawstrings at the neck that can become entangled on playground equipment, handrails, or school bus doors. The recall affects 11 different styles in sizes 2 through 12, sold at U.S. Snowmobile Dealers and online at fxrracing.com between August 2008 and January 2014. No injuries have been reported, but consumers should immediately remove the drawstring or return the item for a full refund.

Risk

What You Should Do
