6,200 Youth Jackets Recalled
Prairie Mountain Inc. has announced a voluntary recall of approximately 6,200 youth jackets because the drawstrings in the hoods can cause strangulation.
The recall involves Youth Rip Stop hooded wind rain jackets. These are lightweight jackets sold in sizes 2/4, 6/8, 10/12, and 14/16 in red, royal blue, and leaf green. The jackets were sold in vacation gift shops nationwide between February 2010 and July 2010 for approximately $20.
If you have one of these jackets, you should immediately remove the drawstring to eliminate the hazard or contact Prairie Mountain for instructions on how to receive a full refund at 800-370-4941 between 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, via the firm’s website at www.prairiemountain.net, or via email at mikegaler@prairiemountain.net.
