Kolcraft Recalls Contours Tandem Strollers Due to Fall and Choking Hazards

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Kolcraft is recalling about 5,600 Contours Options LT tandem strollers with model number ZT012. The front wheel assembly on these strollers can break, which can cause the stroller to collapse or tip. Additionally, strollers manufactured in early 2012 have nuts on the basket support that can detach and become a choking hazard for young children. Kolcraft has received six reports of wheels breaking and two reports of support hardware detaching, though no injuries have been reported. Owners should stop using the stroller and contact Kolcraft for free replacement parts.

Risk

The front wheels can break during use, causing a child to fall from the stroller. In certain models, small nuts holding the storage basket can fall off, posing a serious choking hazard if found and swallowed by a young child.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the Contours Options LT tandem stroller and keep it out of reach of children.
  2. Check the rear leg of the stroller for a white label containing the model number and date of manufacture to confirm your unit is affected. This recall involves all model ZT012 strollers.
  3. Identify your color scheme: the recalled strollers were sold in black with red canopies and accents, or gray with yellow canopies and accents, with 'Options LT' printed on the side bar.
  4. Contact Kolcraft toll-free at (800) 453-7673 between 8 a.m. and 6:45 p.m. ET Monday through Thursday, or 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. ET Friday, or visit www.kolcraft.com to receive free replacement wheels.
  5. If your stroller was manufactured in January or February 2012, ensure you also request the replacement nuts for the basket support screws when contacting the company.
