Thousands of strollers are being recalled in Canada due to amputation risks.

New Zealand-based company phil&teds decided to call back thousands of their jogging strollers following nine reports of related injuries worldwide.

No injuries have been reported in Canada.

The affected strollers include the company’s sport V2 and classic V1 three-wheel foldable models.

Over 7,000 of those models have sold across the country since April 2008.
