The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has approved a
new federal safety standard that will improve the safety of all carriages and
strollers sold after September 10, 2015.
The new standard was developed due to the CPSC’s review of
more than 1,300 stroller safety incidents involving children 4 years old and
younger from 2008 through 2013. Many of
these incidents led to product liability cases based on stroller design and
manufacturing defects and failure to warn.
The incident numbers to-date show
that defective strollers and carriages resulted in 4 child deaths, 14
hospitalizations, and 391 injuries. The
most common injury was severe pinching or amputations due to hinge design and
placement.
The new safety standard requires that all strollers and
carriages be made, tested and labeled to minimize the hazards seen in such
incidents. The design changes will
include:
Hinges which will not pinch, cut,
or amputate fingers or arms
Wheels resistant to breakage and
detachment
Better parking brakes and
redesigned locking mechanisms
Child-proof restraints and more
secure seat belts
Structural integrity and improved
stability
If you have any doubt that your child’s current stroller is safe
check with the CPSC for recalled models.
Many manufacturers will repair or replace their product to protect your
child.
