Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
I received the orange one instead of the black one I registered for at my shower. My SIL said she did not get the black because they were all recalled due to harness issues. I found I link online. I will be returning my orange for black when they are fixed, but since it is such a popular stoller on here I wanted to let everone know about this.

Re: Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
I read about this in CR too. when I purchase my BJCM Double stroller, I plan on checking out whether the stroller was manufactured after Feb 2009. Then the redesigned buckle will be standard.

Definitely. I will make sure about that. I was originally thinking about the Bugaboo but this is more suited to my needs and where I live, so I hope it is fixed by then!

Re: Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
Thanks for posting. I just got mine at my shower and luckily it was made in April 2009. But I have friends who have it and I'm positive theirs are recalled. I forwarded the info on!

Re: Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
It's just a voluntary recall for the strap... you don't send back your stroller or anything, they just send you the new part if you want it. There were no incidences of any kind, baby jogger just decided to take them off the shelves and add the new strap.

Thank god there were no incidences! When my sil went to buy it she said all the black ones were all already pulled, i guess to be corrected. So I'm patiently waiting my black one!

Re: Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
I just got the black and red double off albee baby 3 weeks ago a few days before the recall. I got 10% off (2008 model). The recall isn't that big of a problem. They are just replacing the buckles - you don't take the stroller anywhere they just send you the buckles. I'm getting them to send me whole new seats with the fixed buckles though b.c while I could get the shoulder buckle parts changed I couldn't get the crotch one off (it is obvious that they stitch it closed after putting on the buckle) they TRIED to tell me to open the stitching and put it on then have it professionally re-stitched. I told them NO WAY and they are sending me a new seat this week.
BBB is switching the buckles themselves before putting them back out onto the shelves is what I heard someone saying the other day.

THanks for this info, I would have insisted on a new seat too! Either way, when I get the new one I will make sure to take a good look at the buckle, seat and stitching to make sure they did a secure job

Re: Baby Jogger City Mini Recall
I registered for the City Mini at Buy Buy Baby a few months ago, got it at my shower this past Saturday and my stroller was made in April 209 so I'm safe!
