ADDITIONAL DELTA CRIB RECALL ANNOUNCEMENT: RELEASE #09-017

WASHINGTON, D.C. – THE U.S. CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION (CPSC), IN COOPERATION WITH DELTA ENTERPRISE CORP., OF NEW YORK, N.Y., IS ANNOUNCING THE VOLUNTARY RECALL TODAY OF ABOUT 600,000 DROP SIDE CRIBS. THE CRIB’S DROP SIDE CAN DETACH WHEN THE SPRING PEG IS NOT ENGAGED, WHICH CAN CAUSE AN ENTRAPMENT AND SUFFOCATION RISK TO INFANTS AND TODDLERS.

IF THE SPRING PEGS IN THE BASE OF EACH LEG OF THE CRIB ARE PUSHED BACK INTO THE LOWER TRACK, THE PEGS CAN BECOME NONFUNCTIONAL. THIS CAN CAUSE THE DROP SIDE TO DETACH FROM THE CRIB AND CREATE A GAP THAT CAN ENTRAP AN INFANT OR TODDLER.

CPSC STAFF IS AWARE OF A DEATH OF AN 8-MONTH-OLD CHILD WHO SUFFOCATED WHEN THE DROP SIDE OF HIS CRIB DETACHED. CPSC IS ALSO AWARE OF ONE CHILD ENTRAPMENT AND ONE INCIDENT IN WHICH THE DROP SIDE DETACHED DUE TO A DISENGAGED SPRING PEG.

THE RECALL INVOLVES ALL DELTA DROP SIDE CRIBS MANUFACTURED PRIOR TO 2006 THAT USE “CRIB TRIGGER LOCK WITH SPRING PEG” DROP SIDE HARDWARE DESIGN. THE RECALLED MODEL NUMBERS AND COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INCLUDE: 4340, 4343, 4520, 4600, 4620, 4624, 4625, 4629, 4660, 4665, 4720, 4750, 4751, 4850, 4855, 4857, 4880, 4920, 4925-2, 4925-2B, 4925-6, 4980, AND 8605. THE MODEL NUMBER, COUNTRY OF ORIGIN AND MANUFACTURE DATES ARE LOCATED ON TOP OF THE MATTRESS SUPPORT BOARD. THE RECALLED CRIBS HAVE DELTA’S NAME AND ADDRESS ON THE MATTRESS SUPPORT BOARDS AND DELTA’S LOGO ON THE TEETHER RAIL.

THE CRIBS, WHICH WERE MADE IN CHINA, WERE SOLD AT MAJOR RETAILERS NATIONWIDE FROM JANUARY 2000 THROUGH JANUARY 2007 FOR BETWEEN $33 AND $200. CRIBS CURRENTLY SOLD AT RETAIL ARE NOT INVOLVED.

CPSC AND DELTA URGE PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS TO IMMEDIATELY STOP USING THESE CRIBS AND CONTACT DELTA TO RECEIVE A FREE, EASY-TO-INSTALL REPAIR KIT. CALL DELTA TOLL-FREE AT (800) 816-5304 ANYTIME AFTER 5 PM TODAY OR LOG ON WWW.CRIBRECALLCENTER.COM TO ORDER THE FREE REPAIR KIT.

PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO FIND A SAFE, ALTERNATIVE SLEEP ENVIRONMENT FOR THEIR CHILD UNTIL THE REPAIR KIT, WITH NEW SAFETY PEGS, IS SAFELY INSTALLED ARE THE RECALLED CRIBS.

CPSC WOULD LIKE TO REMIND PARENTS NOT TO USE ANY CRIB WITH MISSING, BROKEN, OR LOOSE PARTS. MAKE SURE TO TIGHTEN HARDWARE FROM TIME TO TIME TO KEEP THE CRIB STURDY. WHEN USING A DROP SIDE CRIB PARENTS SHOULD CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE DROP SIDE OR ANY OTHER MOVING PART OPERATES SMOOTHLY. ALWAYS CHECK ALL SIDES AND CORNERS OF THE CRIB FOR DISENGAGEMENT. ANY DISENGAGEMENT CAN CREATE A GAP AND ENTRAP A CHILD. IN ADDITION, DO NOT TRY TO REPAIR ANY SIDE OF THE CRIB, ESPECIALLY WITH TAPE, WIRE OR ROPE.
