National Stroller Recall

WASHINGTON (AP) — Peg Perego recalled  hundreds of thousands of strollers Tuesday because children can become trapped  and strangled between trays on them. One death has already been reported.
A six-month-old boy from Tarzana, Calif. died of strangulation in a stroller
in 2004, while a seven-month-old girl from New York was nearly strangled in
2006, according  to Peg Perego USA Inc. The company said entrapment and
strangulation can take place, particularly among those younger than a year old,
when the child is not harnessed into the stroller. If unharnessed, children can
pass through the opening between the tray and the seat bottom and the child's
neck and head can become trapped by the tray.
Peg Perego is recalling approximately  223,000 strollers, which include Venezia
and Pliko-P3 strollers in various colors, made between January 2004 and
September 2007.
Only strollers with a child tray and one  cup holder are part of the recall. Strollers with a bumper bar in front of the  child or a tray with two cup holders are not included in this recall.
The company said the strollers were made  before a voluntary industry standard was implemented in January 2008 that addresses the height of the opening between the stroller's tray and the seat  bottom. The voluntary standard requires larger stroller openings that prevent
infant entrapment and strangulation hazards. The model numbers are:
