In November of 2009 Maclaren strollers were recalled because several incidents were reported in which the stollers hinge was causing finger injuries (at times even amputations). However, strollers produced after May 2010 have a new hinge mechanism that prevents such injury from occurring. Your old strollers, if produced before this date, probably still pose as a hazard. Newer models of the stroller after 2010, however, should be safe to use.
