Graco recalls Quattro and MetroLite strollers made before Nov 2006 and July 2007 due to risk of infant entrapment and strangulation. Consumers should stop using and contact Graco for a free repair kit.
An infant can pass through the opening between the stroller tray and seat bottom, but his/her head and neck can become entrapped by the tray. Infants who become entrapped at the neck are at risk of strangulation.
Graco is recalling Quattro Tour and MetroLite strollers and travel systems made before specific dates because infants can get trapped in the stroller tray, leading to strangulation. This is a serious hazard that requires immediate action to prevent injury.
Infants can pass through the gap between the stroller tray and seat bottom, causing their head and neck to become trapped. This entrapment can lead to strangulation, which is a life-threatening hazard.

Check for the model numbers printed on a label at the lower rear frame of the stroller. Quattro models made before November 2006 and MetroLite models made before July 2007 are affected. Note that Quattro models ending in 3 are not included.
