Plain-English summary

Infantino LLC is recalling approximately 40,500 Troy the Activity Truck toys in the United States and 1,900 in Canada. The recall is due to a choking hazard, as plastic beads on the activity truck's bead runs can detach.

The recalled toys are blue, red, and yellow with plastic star, circle, and heart beads attached to the bead runs on the back. The truck has a face on the front, and "Infantino" is printed on the front. Model numbers 153-210, 206-110, or 506-110C are printed underneath the truck. When the switch is turned on, the truck plays music and the back wheels spin. The toys were sold at Babies R Us, Toys R Us, Meijer, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and other toy stores nationwide from September 2009 through February 2011 for about $15.

Infantino has received 28 reports of the plastic beads detaching from the bead runs, including two reports of young children gagging on the plastic beads. Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and contact Infantino to receive a free replacement toy. For additional information, consumers can contact Infantino toll-free at (888) 808-3111 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at http://www.infantino.com.
