| Yeah that's what I found, according to the US website the affected models are: Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, Techno XLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller.
Apparently it's because of a few cases of children having their fingers amputated by the pushchairs, I have a Volo and I'm a bit concerned now  | | | | Status: Offline
