Safety alert: Recall notice issued for Aria lightweight stroller

Aria Child has issued a recall for its Qbit lightweight stroller after more than 70 reports of the stroller folding unexpectedly while a child was in it.

Only minor injuries have been reported because of the malfunction, including one adult who fell and broke their wrist after the stroller collapsed.

The recall notice also says a gap in the stroller’s folding side hinge can pinch a caregiver’s hand during unfolding, posing a laceration hazard.

The strollers affected by the recall were manufactured between March 25, 2015, and March 9, 2016.

Anyone who has one of the affected strollers, or who wants more information, can contact Aria Child toll free at 888-591-5540 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or online at www.ariachild.com. Click on “Qbit Lightweight Stroller Voluntary Recall Information.”
