Hazard identified: The front wheel of these strollers may detach if improperly secured causing the stroller to flip over posing a possible fall hazard. It is important to engage your quick release correctly because the function of the quick release is to secure your front wheel to your stroller. If the quick release is improperly engaged, your front wheel could detach in use, and you or your child could be injured.
As of May 6, 2019, the company has received 16 reports of front wheel detachment in Canada, and 0 reports of injuries to children and 4 reports of adult scratches and bruises.
Consumers should visit the BOB Gear Information Campaign website to view their online video for further instructions on how to properly install the front wheel quick release or how to obtain certain Campaign incentives, such as an alternative attachment mechanism or discount on a new stroller or accessory.
