I have a model 8756 simplicity crib that was bought second hand. I noticed all of their tubed support cribs have been recalled. How would I be able to determine if the replacement support has been installed? Are there any other options for securing a proper support to connect to the current wood fame?

Simplicity is out of business and their cribs have been recalled.

This recall will be carried out by retailers since the manufacturer is no longer in business. These cribs were sold at Walmart, Target and Babies R Us stores. You should contact the store where you purchased the crib to receive a refund, store credit or replacement crib.
Do not attempt to fix a recalled Simplicity crib. Please find a safe, alternative sleeping location for your baby until the crib can be replaced. It's important to note, as well, that all Simplicity drop-side cribs are already under recall due to a problem with the drop-side.

Returning the crip or getting a resolution for the crib you have depends more on where you bought it than anything else. Simplicity is not fully in business any longer according to the CPSC so you cannot obtain repair kits for these cribs.

We had a Simplicity crib, one of the Aspen models. We had bought ours at Wal-Mart. They have a pretty open policy when it comes to recalls. We returned ours this past summer for a full refund. We had bought it in 2002 so it was over 7 years old at the time.

If you know where you bought it, then checked with them to see what their policy is concerning recalled products, if you're not sure where you bought it then check with the major retailers to see who might have sold your model and what their policy is.

I would definately alert you niece to the recall. fF the dropside comes off at the bottom, the baby can really get hurt.
The recall is specifically an issue with the dropsides on these cribs. You can improve the safety of the crib by imobolizing the front dropside - make it where is cannot be dropped by screwing the front side into the side rails of the crib.
