The CPSC has recalled Contours Options LT Tandem Strollers, imported by Kolcraft Enterprises Inc., of Chicago, Ill.

The front wheel assembly of the recalled strollers can break, posing a fall hazard to the child. In addition, for strollers manufactured in January and February 2012, the nuts that hold the stroller’s basket support screws in place can detach, posing a choking hazard.

This recall involves all Contours Options LT tandem strollers with model number ZT012. They were sold at the Burlington Coat Factory and stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com, Target.com and other online retailers between February 2012 and July 2012 for about $250.

Consumers should immediately stop using the product and contact the company to receive free replacement wheels. Consumers with strollers manufactured in January and February 2012 will also receive replacement nuts for the basket support screws.

For additional information, contact Kolcraft toll-free at (800) 453-7673 or visit www.kolcraft.com.

Contours Options single strollers were recalled earlier this year due to finger laceration and amputation risks.
