Jogging Strollers Pose Strangulation Hazard, Recalled

Tike Tech has issued a voluntary recall of their Single City X3 and X3 Sport Jogging Strollers due to a strangulation hazard.  The opening between the seat bottom and grab bar could potentially allow an infant's body to pass through and become trapped at the neck by the grab bar, if the child is not harnessed.  In general, parents are encouraged to secure children in strollers using safety harnesses.  Children should never be left unattended in their stroller. 

The recalled strollers' ID codes end in 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06 and 07.  All codes begin with TT-18 and can be found on the left side of the frame interior.  The strollers were sold for about $300 between October 2009 and February 2010.
