Mamas & Papas Recalls Strollers Over Fall Hazard
Mamas & Papas is issuing a recall on approximately 3,000 of their Armadillo Flip strollers due to a fall risk for infants.
About the Mamas & Papas Stroller Recall
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), a loose latch can cause the seat to tip back when the infant is in the parent-facing position.
The company received 10 reports from consumers of seats tipping back. No injuries have been linked to the malfunction.
Consumers are advised to stop using the recalled strollers immediately and contact Mamas & Papas for a repair, free of charge.
