Bugaboo stroller recall - no reason to panic but worth a read if you own one
Today, Bugaboo voluntarily recalled the Cameleon and Donkey strollers that have detachable carrycots/seats. A button on the seat carry handle can become disengaged and detach. No injuries have been reported, and the safety risk has been deemed low.

Even so, you'll want to get a free replacement handle right away if you own a stroller with one of these serial numbers under the seat:
To get your free handle replacement, call Bugaboo at (800) 460-2922 from 7AM to 4PM PT Monday through Friday or visit bugaboo.com and click on "Important Quality Initiative," which is a grey box at the bottom left of the page. We're happy to see that that page is extremely comprehensive and helpful--more so than most manufacturer sites after recalls. Which is part of the reason we like the company.Bugaboo Cameleon
