Girls' Hooded Winter Jackets with Drawstrings Recalled by LA Fashion Hub Due to Strangulation Hazard; Sold Exclusively at dd's Discounts
Recall Overview
| Recall Date | |
|---|---|
| Product | Girls' Winter Jackets with drawstrings |
| Units | About 2,300 |
| Hazards | The jackets have a drawstring through the hood which poses a strangulation hazard to children. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines about drawstrings in children's upper outerwear. In 1997, those guidelines were incorporated into a voluntary standard. Then, in July 2011, based on the guidelines and voluntary standard, CPSC issued a federal regulation. CPSC's actions demonstrate a commitment to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on neck and waist drawstrings in upper outerwear, such as jackets and sweatshirts. |
| Remedies | Consumers should immediately remove the drawstring to eliminate the hazard, or return the jacket to a dd's Discounts store for a full refund. |
