On Tuesday, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and The Step2 Company LLC announced a voluntary recall of about 15,500 Step2 X-Rider Cars.

On Friday, The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and KidCo Inc., of Libertyville, IL, announced a recall of  about 220,000 PeaPod and PeaPod Plus Travel Beds.

The CPSC says, “Infants and young children can roll off the edge of the inflatable air mattress, become entrapped between the mattress and the fabric sides of the tent, and suffocate.”

In December 2011, a five-month-old baby boy in New York City died, and was found with his face against the side wall of the tent — the cause of his death was not determined. There have been nine reports of children becoming entrapped or experiencing “physical distress” while in the tent. Some of the babies were found underneath the mattress — which hadn’t been zippered into place — and were crying.

The recall includes these model numbers (located on a small tag on the underside of the tent) and tent fabric colors:

P100	Teal
P101	Red
P102	Lime
P103	Periwinkle
P104	Ocean
P201	Princess/Red
P202	Camouflage
P203	Quick Silver
P204	Sagebrush
P205	Cardinal
P900CS	Green

They were sold at independent juvenile specialty stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com from January 2005 through the present.

On Tuesday, October 23, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Dorel Juvenile Group recalled over 97,000 Eddie Bauer rocking wood bassinets. The recall comes after several reports of bassinets tipping to one side, posing a threat to infants’ breathing.
