Urgent product recall on Baby stroller sold nationally at Kmart and Target

Recall over dangerous defects

Editor / April 14 2020

Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has issued an urgent recall on popular baby strollers.

Three CNP Brand strollers sold nationally at Kmart and Target have been recalled due to dangerous defects.

The recall applies to several models sold between September 30 2019 and February 21 2020.

A faulty rear axel is defective in some models and can cause serious danger to children. 

Says ACCC: “The rear axle may snap at the wheels' position and cause the stroller to fall, posing a risk of injury to the child.”
