On June 2, 2009, Bugaboo issued a voluntary recall for their newest stroller model the Bugaboo Bee. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, (CPSC) about 22,500 models were recalled due to reports that stroller brakes were failing. Fortunately there have only been 121 instances of the Bugaboo’s breaks failing and no injuries.
The Bugaboo Bee models at risk have been sold from August 2007 to August 2009 in registered retailers and online. Models affected have the item code 580210 labeled on the seat, and 50100 labeled on the plastic support piece underneath the seat. They were also sold in blue, dark khaki, pink, yellow, and black.
