A suffocation hazard prompts the recall of 97,000 Eddie Bauer wooden bassinets.
The bottom locking mechanism on the bassinet can fail to lock properly if a spring is not installed.
That could allow the bassinet to tip to one side and cause an infant to roll to the side of the bassinet.
Dorel Juvenile Group manufactured the bassinets and has received 17 reports of incidents involving infants.
In two cases, the infants were reported to have had breathing difficulties after rolling into the side.
