Plain-English summary

Regal Lager Inc. is recalling approximately 11,500 Lascal "Buggy Board" stroller attachments. The Buggy Board is a wheeled board that attaches to a stroller or baby carriage, allowing an older child to stand on the board and ride behind the stroller. The product comes in black, blue, red, and techno styles. Buggy Boards with orange connecting pins are not included in the recall.

The recall is being issued because the Buggy Board's red connecting pins can break, causing the board to partially detach from the stroller or carriage. This poses a fall hazard to the user. Regal Lager Inc. has received two reports of the Buggy Board disengaging from a stroller or carriage, resulting in falls to children. One minor injury was reported.

The Lascal "Buggy Board" stroller attachments were sold at specialty retail stores, catalogs, and internet sites from January 2003 through July 2004 for about $88. Consumers should stop using the product and contact Regal Lager Inc. at (877) 242-5676 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or log on to the company's website at www.regallager.com to obtain a free repair kit consisting of orange replacement pins.
