Company Recalls Swing-Set Over Safety Concerns

(KDKA) The Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning parents about a potentially dangerous swing-set.

Officials with Step2 are recalling more than 4,000 backyard swing-sets because of safety concerns.

It's called the "Step2 Play Up Gym" and was sold by Toys-'R-Us.

The CPSC says the hangers that attach the swing's ropes to the top rail can break and cause children to fall.

Officials say it has happened 17 times so far.

Step2 will send you a set of replacement hangers.
