The CPSC and Bugaboo have announced a voluntary recall of about 1,200 Bugaboo Dragonfly Seat Strollers because in “parent-facing” mode, the backrest of the seat can move downward, placing the infant in a negative recline. In this situation, an unrestrained infant could tumble from the seat, posing an injury hazard.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled seats and contact Bugaboo at 800-460-2922 Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT, Friday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. PT or email at service.us@bugaboo.com or online at www.bugaboo.com and click “Recalls” at the bottom or top of the page or www.bugaboo.com/us-en/productrecalls for more information on how to receive a free replacement stroller seat. Bugaboo is contacting all known retailers and purchasers directly.
Bugaboo has received one report in the United States and seven reports in South Korea of the backrest of the seat moving downward during use when in parent-facing mode. No injuries have been reported in the U.S.
This recall involves only the seat sold with the Bugaboo Dragonfly Seat Strollers. The strollers are comprised of a base on which either a seat or bassinet can be mounted.
