Plain-English summary

Lan Enterprises LLC is recalling approximately 3,700 Zooper Tango double strollers, models SL808B and SL808F, due to a collapse hazard. The recall involves strollers with production dates ranging from January 1, 2007, through April 30, 2008. The model numbers are printed on the original packaging, and production dates are printed on the warning labels attached to the seats. The word "Zooper" is printed on the stroller canopies and grab bars, and the web address www.zooper.com is printed on the basket under the stroller seats.

The stroller's frame latch above the front wheels can fail when the stroller hits an object, causing the stroller to unexpectedly collapse. This can result in minor scrapes, cuts, and bruises. The company has received 185 reports of frame latch failures. In one incident, a 13-month-old boy and a 3-year-old boy received scrapes and bruises when their stroller hit a sidewalk and collapsed.

The recalled strollers were sold at juvenile product and mass merchandise retailers nationwide and online retailers, including www.albeebaby.com and www.babiesrus.com, from January 2007 through August 2008 for between $400 and $430. Consumers should immediately stop using these recalled strollers and contact Zooper USA to receive a free repair kit. For additional information, consumers can contact Zooper USA toll-free at (888) 966-7379 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday or visit the firm's website at www.zooper.com.
