Plain-English summary
Kolcraft Enterprises Inc. is recalling about 5,600 Contours Options LT tandem strollers with model number ZT012. The recall involves dual-seat strollers with one mesh basket beneath both seats, sold in black with red accents or gray with yellow accents. The model number and date of manufacture are printed on a label on the rear leg of the stroller.
The front wheel assembly can break, posing a fall hazard to the child in the stroller. Additionally, for strollers manufactured in January and February 2012, the nuts that hold the stroller's basket support screws in place can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. Kolcraft has received six reports of front caster wheels breaking and two reports of the basket's support screws and nuts detaching. No injuries have been reported.
The strollers were sold at Burlington Coat Factory, juvenile product specialty stores nationwide, and online at Amazon.com, Target.com, and other online retailers between February 2012 and July 2012 for about $250. Consumers should immediately stop using the product and contact Kolcraft to receive free replacement wheels. Consumers with strollers manufactured in January and February 2012 will also receive replacement nuts for the basket support screws.
