RECALL! BOB & Britax Strollers. 

"Childcare product manufacturer Britax is voluntarily recalling 676,000 strollers in the United States after discovering the car seat on their B-Agile and BOB Motion strollers may disengage and cause a fall to the child, according to federal safety officials."

My 2013 B-Agile is on this list. Check your strollers ladies!

Yikes! Thanks for sharing. I haven't used mine for a while but plan to when this LO is born so we can click the carseat in. Mine was manufactured in November 2013 and is on the list.

@jayandaplus I don't remember when you're due, but @erinh2005 said 10-14 weeks. I'm due in 12 weeks  make sure you order the repair kit today!

Crap ours is too  

ETA: went to order the kit and realized we don't know where we will be living so I can't order it yet!  at least it seems we can still use the car seat...just won't be going on walks or anywhere we would need the stroller if it doesn't arrive in time. Hopefully we'll know soon where we will be living so we can order it!

@babymc517 Can you have it shipped to someone else since its already 10-14 weeks wait?

BabyMC517

@pshaortao I just told my husband and he said the same thing. We'll see if a friend or even my boss who I have a good relationship would mind us shipping it to their place. Just makes me want to know even more what's going on with the house we're buying!

This was on my registry and now amazon took it off!  I need to pick a new stroller/car seat combo.  

MrsFreeman2010

@rkstro2 just my two cents (even though you didn't ask ). I hated the stroller. The was difficult to maneuver, you had to buy accessories for everything (cup holders, tray, etc), and the basket is non-exhistent.  I researched a lot and the combo was always very highly recommended so that's what we went for for our first but immediately regretted it.  I love the car seat however.   

We already ordered a new stroller for this little one. We went with a Graco Fast action jogger and I love it so far. It's sooo easy to use and fold and so much storage space. It is bigger and bulkier than the B-agile but the other pros are totally worth it.

@MrsFreeman2010 thanks! I totally want input but I thought if I asked people would just refer me to baby-gear thread (and don't worry everyone I'm checking there too )   I am totally open to ideas.  Since I found out about this a few hours ago I have thought about keeping the b-safe car seat and getting another stroller that is compatible (like the city ft stroller) but then also am looking into totally different systems. I have heard lots of good things about graco fast action jogger so I'm going to check it out!  Thanks again!

I agree. We arent big fans of the stroller either. We only used it for the first 6 or so months with the carseat clicked in before she started sitting up well enough for the stroller itself. My mom got this graco stroller for like 20 bucks on a bst group and I ended up taking it with me ha. I do like the carseat just fine, so were going to stick with what we have already for awhile then look into a new one for both. (A sit and stand or whatever theyre called)

+1 for hating this stroller. I have a Graco Bravo for 2 this time around. 

rkstro2

Oh man!  Thanks guys for the input!  I was so disappointed that my first choice was a no-go due to the recall but now I'm excited about the different possibilities!  We went to babies r us (I think DH is tired of going there by now)tonight just to window shop and try out the different strollers and fold them/pick them up etc.  DH liked to see how many Beer holders each stroller has.  Haha.

I love our Grace Modes Click Connect. The best buy we made for DS. We got the click connect double side by side for these ladies! So easy to maneuver and fold!

That's great to know!

Also I just have to say how awesome Amazon is. I know it's a little delayed, but I just got an email informing me of the recall. That's pretty impressive since I ordered the stroller in 2014! I love Amazon!

BabyMC517

Ordered the remedy kit and had it sent to my parents new place. Said 3 weeks
