Maclaren USA, the stroller manufacturer which issued a massive recall in November 2009, is calling for mandatory federal regulations of standards for strollers and global harmonization of stroller safety.

In a press release to announce results of the 2009 recall, Maclaren says that umbrella strollers “remain unregulated with tremendous risk to consumers who expect and assume otherwise" and notes that the stroller hazards that prompted the 2009 recall “were inherent not just to Maclaren products, but to nearly all umbrella-fold models,”
