Hazard, in the words of CPSC
The crib's plastic hardware can break, which can cause the drop side of the crib to detach from a corner of the crib.

In addition, the crib's mattress support can detach from the crib frame, creating a hazardous space in which a child could become entrapped and suffocate or strangle.
Remedy, in the words of CPSC
CPSC staff urges parents and caregivers to stop using these cribs immediately and find an alternative, safe sleeping environment for their baby. Do not attempt to fix these cribs.
