. By
Washington, DCB.O.B. Trailers Inc, of Boise, Idaho is recalling about 337,000 BOB single and double strollers in the US and a further 20,000 in Canada becausde a drawstring on the stroller can get wrapped around a child's neck, posing a strangulation hazard.

The firm has received one report of an 11-month-old girl who got entangled at the neck by the stroller's drawstring. The child was freed by her mother.

This recall involves the following 11 models of B.O.B.® single and double strollers. The name "B.O.B" appears on the cargo basket under the stroller and on the front of the stroller. All of the recalled strollers have a yellow/orange drawstring at the rear of the canopy which is used to gather loose fabric when the canopy is pulled back. Strollers have the serial number either stamped in the frame or on a white label located on the stroller's rear right leg. For a complete list of affected products see the link below.

The strollers were sold at REI, buy buy Baby and other stores nationwide and on the Web at Babiesrus.com, Target.com and Amazon.com between April 2002 and February 2011 for between $300 and $600.
