Britax has recalled more than 600,000 strollers after discovering an issue that could cause child seats to disengage from the device.
The recall affects Britax B-Agile and BOB Motion strollers, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Britax has received 33 reports of car seats unexpectedly disconnecting from the strollers and falling to the ground, resulting in 26 reports of injuries to children, including scratches, bruises, cuts and bumps to the head.
In addition, Britax is aware of 1,337 reports of strollers with damaged Click & Go receiver mounts.
The company says consumers should immediately stop using their Click & Go receiver mounts and contact Britax for a free repair kit for single strollers. Owners of the recalled double strollers should stop using them with car seats attached.
Consumers can continue to use their stroller or car seat independently without the car seat attached to the stroller.
The strollers were sold at Babies R Us, buy buy Baby, Target and other stores nationwide, and online at Amazon.com, albeebaby.com, buybuybaby.com, diapers.com, ToysRUs.com and other websites from May 2011 through February 2017 for between $250 and $470 for the strollers and travel systems.
