Victory Land Group Recalls to Repair Drop-Side Cribs Sold Exclusively at Kmart Due to Entrapment, Suffocation and Fall Hazards
Heritage Collection 3-in-1 drop-side cribs
Recall Date: October 22nd, 2010
Type: Cribs
Units: About 34,000
Hazards:
The crib's drop-side rail can malfunction, detach or otherwise fail, causing part of the drop-side to detach from the crib. When the drop-side rail partially detaches, it creates a space between the drop side and the crib mattress. An infant or toddler's body can become entrapped in the space, which can lead to strangulation and/or suffocation. A child can also fall out of the crib. Drop-side incidents can also occur due to age-related wear and tear.
Remedies:
Dispose
The firm is no longer in business. Consumers should immediately stop using the cribs, disable or destroy and discard them. Repair kits are no longer available.
