Recall to repair Cybex US Stroller Buggies
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) have issued a recall to repair in cooperation with Regal Lager Inc, distributor of CYBEX Strollers.
The recall includes the following strollers:
- Cybex Ruby
- Cybex Onyx
- Cybex Topaz
The Cybex Ruby, Onyx and Topax buggies are available in the UK from Mama and Papa’s department store and online department store Very.co.uk. Mamas & Papas signed an exclusive deal with Cybex in January 2009, “as Mamas & Papas believed their European counterparts offered an outstanding range of products which deserved to be introduced to their UK customers through Mamas & Papas brand so that parents were assured of the same quality and value for money they have come to recognise from the UK Superbrand.”
Mindful Mum is contacting Cybex (based in Germany), Mama & Papas and the UK Trading Institute to find out if UK strollers are affected and if the recall will also be announced to customers in the UK / Europe as part of Mama & Papas ongoing commitment to assure UK customer of their “strict quality and safety controls.”
Please contact Mindful Mum if you have a Cybex Stroller / Buggy in the UK.
