Summary
CPSC records recall 10134, published February 9, 2010. Recalling firm: Generation 2 Worldwide of Dothan, Ala.; Reported units: About 500,000.
What's the hazard
The crib's plastic hardware can break, which can cause the drop side of the crib to detach from a corner of the crib. When detached, the drop side creates a space, into which a child can roll and become entrapped. Entrapment between the drop side and the crib mattress creates a risk of suffocation or strangulation. In addition, the crib's mattress support can detach from the crib frame, creating a hazardous space in which a child could become entrapped and suffocate or strangle.

CPSC staff urges parents and caregivers to stop using these cribs immediately and find an alternative, safe sleeping environment for their baby. Do not attempt to fix these cribs.
