Mockingbird announced today that it’s recalling 149,000 of the brand's popular Single-to-Double strollers after receiving reports of the item breaking. The recall only impacts consumers in the U.S. who own a Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the lower side of the stroller frame can crack, posing a fall risk to children in the stroller. There have been 138 reports of cracks in the frame, eight of which resulted in injuries including cuts, scratches and bruising to children in the strollers.
What to do if you own a Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller
Fortunately, if you own this stroller, there’s a way to continue using it safely. Families who own an affected Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller can order a frame reinforcement kit on the company's website, which includes two frame clamps that attach to the sides of the stroller to reinforce the frame. Until the reinforcement kit arrives, the CPSC suggests you stop using your Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller.
The recall only impacts Mockingbird Single-to-Double Strollers with a lot number between 20091 and 22602. You can find the five-digit lot number on the white product label located on the inner left side of the stroller frame near the top of the basket. (Mockingbird has a helpful diagram for how to locate it.)
According to the CPSC, the strollers were sold at Target stores nationwide and online at Mockingbird's website, Babylist, Good Buy Gear and Target from March 2020 to September 2022 for $395 to $450.
Once again, if your model was involved in the recall, you should order a free frame reinforcement kit right away. In the meantime, stop using the recalled Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller.
