Another Crib Recall - Dorel Asia brand Sold at Walmart and Kmart

Dorel Asia is recalling 20 models of cribs sold at Kmart and Walmart since January, 2005.  This is a serious recall, with 10 infants injured and one killed due to a malfunction of the hardware. 

The CSPC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) is advising anyone with these cribs to stop using them immediately until the repair kit can be installed.  They are also advising owners to order the repair kit even if the crib is not currently being used because the malfunction can happen even during re-assembly. View the press release here.

Repair kits can be ordered here or by calling (866) 762-2304 between 8am and 4:30pm EST (7am - 3:30pm CST) Monday through Friday.
