Nearly 1 million of these play yards are being recalled by Kolcraft because, according to the CPSC, the "play yard's side rail can fail to latch properly and when a child pushes against the rail it can unlatch unexpectedly, posing a fall hazard to children." There have been 347 reports of the sides falling with 21 injuries. Models included are branded under several different names including Jeep, Carter's, Sesame Street, Eric Carle, Care Bear and Contours (pictured here).

Kolcraft is sending out free repair kits if you call 866-594-4208 (any time) or fill out the form on their Web site. Be sure to have your model number and date of manufacture handy (see the full list of model numbers here - there are a lot).
