Plain-English summary

Baby Jogger LLC is recalling Baby Jogger Jump Seats due to a fall hazard. The Jump Seat is a fabric seat accessory that attaches to the mounting bracket on the frame of a Baby Jogger City Elite, City Classic, or Summit stroller, allowing a toddler and baby to ride together. The item number for the recalled product is J7J50.

If the Jump Seat does not properly lock into place, it could disengage from the stroller, allowing the child to fall out. Baby Jogger has received four reports of children falling from the seat, including reports of scrapes, bruises, cuts, and one broken nose. About 1,545 units were sold in the U.S. and about 450 in Canada from January 2008 through July 2010.

Consumers should immediately stop using the Jump Seat and contact Baby Jogger to receive safety straps and assembly instructions. The seats were sold at juvenile products stores, mass merchandisers, and department stores nationwide and online for about $100.
