Bugaboo Strollers With Handle Problem Recalled
Bugaboo Cameleon 3 Strollers have been recalled because the stroller’s carrying handle can break and detach, posing a fall hazard. The removable carry handle is used to transport the bassinet or seat separately from the chassis.
Though the company has received 16 reports of carry handles breaking, no injuries have been reported.
The stroller has an aluminum and plastic frame with rubberized wheels, a removable seat and bassinet, a removable “U”-shaped carry handle, an under-the-seat storage bag and a sun canopy.

They were sold by Buy Buy Baby, Toys R Us and other baby product stores nationwide, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, online at Bugaboo.com and other online retailers from September 2012 to March 2013 for between $889 and $1,600.
