    1.6 million cribs recalled after 2 infant deaths

    Drop-side beds were made by Delta Enterprises between 1995 and 2007

    A recall of nearly 1.6 million cribs, triggered by the suffocations of two 8-month-old infants, has prompted a government agency to urge parents to inspect older drop-side cribs for safety problems.

    Both of the suffocations involved infants who got stuck in a gap created when the movable side came off of its guide track.

    The incidents, which involved Delta Enterprises cribs, involved safety pegs that are intended to prevent the drop side from lowering too far and slipping off the track. If these pegs are not installed, or if they fail to engage, the drop-side can detach and create a dangerous gap where babies can get stuck.
