The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said more than 22,000 Bugaboo Bee strollers were recalled because of a risk of brake failure.

According to the CPSC, one or both sides of the brakes can fail, causing the stroller to unexpectedly roll away on an incline.

Bugaboo has received 121 reports of stroller brakes failing. No injuries have been reported.

The strollers were sold at Juvenile product retailers nationwide and on various Web sites from August 2007 through April 2009 and retail at about $530.

For more information and to obtain a free repair kit, customers can go to the company's Web site at www.bugaboo.com or e-mail the firm at bugaboobee-service@bugaboo.com.

The strollers are made in Taiwan and distributed by Bugaboo North America of Hermosa Beach, Calif.
