Graco carrers/swing seats

Graco Children's Products Inc., of Elverson, Pa., is recalling 564,000 Graco carriers and carrier/swing seats for repair because the handle on the seats can unflock unexpectedly, causing an infant to fall and be injured.

Graco has received 45 reports of handles unlocking, including reports of four skull fractures and two concussions.

Graco is offering a free repair kit that will lock the handle in position. It can be installed without tools, by the consumer.
