As anticipated, Baby Jogger has recalled 41,000 of its City Mini strollers after testing by Consumer Reports showed that the stroller's harness buckle released too easily.

We reported in July that during our recent tests of 19 strollers, we found that the Baby Jogger City Mini Single had a harness buckle that released when the harness straps were pulled by forces as weak as two pounds. That's considerably less than the pulling force of a typical-sized child. We reported then that the company was discussing a recall with the Consumer Product Safety Commission and also that, independent of our test findings, Baby Jogger had recently redesigned the buckle after getting about 100 consumer complaints that the buckles had broken.

The recall includes both Baby Jogger City Mini single and double strollers manufactured between Nov.1, 2007 and Feb. 28, 2009. They were sold at juvenile product stores, mass merchandisers, and department stores nationwide and on various Web sites including Amazon.com from November 2007 through July 2009 for between $220 and $400. (Check the recall notice for item numbers.)
