Health Canada says the motor housing at the base of the seat may overheat, posing a fire hazard. There have been two reported overheating incidents in Canada, but no reported injuries. This is a joint recall with the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, where 34 incidents of overheating have been reported and 63,000 units are being recalled.

What should you do? If you own a recalled model, unplug it and stop using it immediately.  Those affected can contact Mattel for instructions on how to obtain a refund.
