Recall: Stork Craft Drop-Side Cribs

In the largest crib recall in United States history, the Consumer Product Safety Commission and Stork Craft Manufacturing Inc. announced the voluntary recall of more than 2.1 million Stork Craft drop-side cribs.
The concerns are over the drop-side panel -- created to make lifting children in and out easier for parents -- which can break or deform. In some cases, where the panel is installed upside-down, it can result in broken parts and detached corners. When the drop-side detaches, it creates space between the side and the crib mattress, an entrapment and suffocation hazard. Complete detachment of drop-sides can lead to falls from the crib.
The recall only includes Stork Craft drop-side cribs with manufacturing and distribution dates between January 1993 and October 2009, and Stork Craft drop-side cribs with the Fisher-Price logo with manufacturing dates between October 1997 and December 2004.
The recall does not include any cribs with metal rod drop-side hardware; only those with plastic trigger and one-hand-system, drop-side hardware.
Parents should stop using the recalled cribs immediately and wait for the repair kit. Do not attempt to fix the cribs without one. To order a free kit, call Stork Craft toll-free at 877-274-0277, or visit the website www.storkcraft.com.

Storkcraft is no longer just in the crib business – it is in the child safety business. The company is taking the right steps by issuing the recall, but there are steps both Storkcraft and its customers can take to ensure that this is an effective recall. Mike Rozembajgier talked about this on Fox & Friends this morning.

The government is fully aware of the recall. Maybe we all should get together and contact an attorney to pursue this company. We too have been dealing with this since our baby grandaughter arrived in Feb. 2009 and the recall was discovered. The mental anquish of knowing we could have been responsible for something horrible happening to our grandaughter because we gave her a baby bed as a gift is just sickening! Let's hear from some Attorney's out there.........what are we suppose to do!
