RECALL: 42,000 Infantino Toy Activity Trucks Due to Choking Hazard

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation with Infantino LLC, of San Diego, Calif., today announced a voluntary recall of about 42,400 Troy the Activity Truck because the plastic beads on the activity truck’s bead runs can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.

Infantino has received 28 reports of the plastic beads detaching from the bead runs on the activity trucks, including two reports of young children gagging on the plastic beads.

This recall involves “Troy the Activity Truck,” which is blue, red and yellow with plastic star, circle and heart beads attached to the bead runs on the back of the truck and has a face on the front. “Infantino” is printed on the front of the toy truck. Model number 153-210, 206-110 or 506-110C is printed underneath the truck. When its switch is turned on, the truck plays music and the back wheels spin.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and 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://service.infantino.com to receive a free replacement toy.
