A potential choking threat has led to the recall of hundreds of thousands of B.O.B. jogging strollers in the United States and Canada.

The backing on an embroidered logo patch on the stroller’s canopy can come loose and end up in children’s mouths, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Associated Press reported.

Boise, Ohio-based B.O.B. has received six reports of children mouthing a detached patch backing, including two cases of choking and gagging.

The recall covers more than 411,000 single and double jogging strollers in the U.S. and 27,000 in Canada that were sold between November 1998 and October 2011, the APreported.

Parents should remove the embroidery backing patch before they use the stroller, the CPSC said. For more information, go to the company’s website at www.bobnotices.com.
