RECALL: Peg Perego Strollers

Always make sure your child is seat-belted in the stroller.

Health Canada is (re)issuing a recall involving older models of Peg Perego Pliko P3 and Venezia strollers (model numbers below), sold January 2004 to September 2007.

All recalled models have trays with only one cup holder. If your Peg Perego has a bumper bar or a tray with two cup holders, you're in the clear. But please double check the model numbers because this is a serious recall.

Pliko P3 Model Nos. IPFR28CA34 IPFT28NA63 IPFT28NA64 IPP328CA09 IPP328CA10 IPPA28CA32 IPPA28CA33 IPPA28CA34 IPPD28NA34 IPPF28NA32 IPPF28NA57 IPPF28NA65 IPPF28NA66 IPPF28NA68 IPPO28CA32 IPPO28CA34 IPPO28CA62 IPPO28CA69 IPPO28CA70 IPPO28CA71

Venezia Model Nos. IPVA13CA09 IPVA13CA10 IPVA13CA32 IPVA13CA34 IPVC13NA32 IPVC13NA34

The models are being recalled because they pose entrapment and strangulation hazards — particularly to children younger than 12 months old who are not strapped into the stroller. Infants risk slipping through the gap between the seat and stroller tray, and becoming entrapped at the neck.

These strollers met all the safety regulations when they were first manufactured, and they continue to now. So always make sure your child is seat-belted in the stroller.

If you have one of these strollers: Contact Peg Perego Canada Inc. Customer Service Line at 1-800-661-5050 or via their website.
