Crotch strap on BOB stroller came off. The fabric was fairly new. If my child had been strapped in and on a run, this would have been very dangerous

The product, in the report: Bob Revolution Jogging Stroller

We bought this jogging stroller based on all the reviews. After a week of use only walking I took it for a run. After 2 miles the front wheel popped off causing my baby to do 2 flips forward. Bob customer service was very unsympathetic. A warning if you own this stroller to double and triple check your wheels EVERY time you go out!

The company’s comments, in its own words

(11/7/2014) Britax Child Safety Inc: Britax Child Safety, Inc. seriously considers all reports related to product safety. Britax also investigates any reports of harm posted to the CPSC database. In this particular matter, the consumer has contacted Britax but indicated that the stroller was not available for return and inspection. The consumer also indicated that they had been running with the BOB stroller with a 4 month old infant in an infant carrier, which is not a recommended use per the product User Guide. The product User Guide also recommends that the front wheel assembly be inspected each time before using the stroller to ensure that the front wheel is properly and securely attached. As Britax has not had the opportunity to inspect the individual stroller in question, it cannot offer further comments.

The product, in the report: BOB Ironman Duallie Double running stroller, yellow

Running with kids in BOB Ironman Dualie running stroller when front wheel came off and forks hit pavement causing stroller to flip over front and land on top of children. Both strapped in however both still hit their heads on street surface. Took both children to pediatric ER for evaluation. Both checked out OK one with bruise and one with abrasions and bruising. I suffered a few cuts and abrasions as well as some pulled muscles. At the crash scene I noticed the tension nut had come off the quick release for the front wheel and could not be found. The quick release was tight and properly secured at the start of the run. Not sure how the nut could have come completely off (un-threaded a significant number of turns) on it’s own even if the release lever had accidently been loosened without noticing the wheel being loose. It’s like the nut broke or fell off forcefully causing the wheel axle to fall from the dropouts. I have several photos of the stroller and injuries available.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(11/15/2012) Britax Child Safety Inc: Britax Child Safety seriously considers all consumer reports related to product safety. We investigate all reports posted to the Consumer Database and in this circumstance our Customer Service department has previously spoken with the consumer, provided a replacement stroller, and we have just received and inspected the stroller involved in the complaint. Our inspection determined that there are no fractured or sheared components which might have caused the front wheel to detach. As indicated by the consumer, the adjustment nut to the quick release was not returned with the stroller and Britax has not been able to determine whether the adjustment nut could have been or was properly tightened which, if not, might have caused the front wheel to detach. The stroller does not contain any manufacturing defects which would have caused the front wheel to detach and Britax cannot determine the cause without further understanding the manner in which the consumer installed and secured the front wheel. As instructed in the user guide, the quick release mechanism requires that the consumer properly install and adequately tighten the wheel assembly and inspect the front wheel each time before using, including ensuring that the cam lever is folded with enough force to secure the front wheel.
