Fisher-Price has recalled its 'Soothing Motion Seats' after receiving more than 30 reports of the product overheating, including one report of a fire contained in the seat's motor housing, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. 

The company, which issued the recall on October 24, 2017, received 36 consumer reports on the hazard. 

The recall affects about 63,000 units, plus 2,000 that were sold in Canada, the U.S. CPSC said on its website. 

The recall includes Soothing Motions Seats with model numbers CMR35, CMR36, CMR37, and DYH22 and Smart Connect Soothing Motions Seats with model number CMR39. The seat bounces, sways, or bounces and sways together, the CPSC said.
