Wheels are awful
I wanted to love this stroller, but after the first summer of using it, nothing but issues. The front wheel does what it wants, when it wants and makes it incredibly hard to steer.

Do Your Research - Wanted to Love It
At the start, we were excited about this stroller. In theory it seems perfect for running and daily use. The front wheel (seems to have ALOT of complaints) about a month in would lock up while walking/moving. I didn’t realize this was such a standard problem that I seem multiple reviews on at this point. Stinks, but we wish we would have done WAY MORE research and reading of reviews.

Great ease of use
We got our fast action click connect jogging stroller for our son in 2015. Yes the front wheel is a pain. Yes the rear wheel falls apart at the spokes. Still waiting on assistance to order the rear wheel 🛞 it's helped save my back as I am a physically disabled mom of 2.

Front wheel does not work
This strollers front wheel sticks when turning when not in jogger mode. I’ve now seen tons of other parents with the same complaint. For any body seeing Graco’s response the wheel should be locked this is inaccurate- that is only for jogging mode.
It is an infuriating defect as it completely seizes up. This is absolutely disappointing as it is an otherwise good little stoller for the price point. It collapses easily and folds neatly and stands after folded. Due to the wheel I cannot recommend this product!
I believe that this must be some sort of engineering or manufacturing issue in the model from the last couple of years judging by the comments.
We are currently trying to replace this stroller because the wheel sticking is so bad. The wheel sticking started almost immediately and we assumed it would lessen over time but it has in fact gotten worse! :(

Very bad
This was a very disappointing purchase. I don’t normally review but I think people should know before they buy. After only a couple months of normal use the front wheel began to wobble a lot causing the whole stroller to shake. When I reached out to customer service they told me that I have to lock the front wheel when using it which causes the stroller to only go in a straight line and unable to easily turn bc the whee is locked in a straight position. When I explained this customer service responded by saying that this stroller is “not designed for turns”. This stroller is great for you if you like jogging only in perfectly straight lines.

Front Wheel Doesn’t Work
We have our first baby and is 4 months old. We have been using this stroller. It is a nice stroller if you are just walking straight but anytime you turn - the front wheel just sticks. It will also just lock up and not let you move or turn. Constantly having to re position ourselves. Wish we bought a different stroller.

Wish I Read the Reviews
I loved this stroller in theory but about a month in the front wheel would lock and that’s super dangerous where we live - I didn’t realize this was such a standard problem! Super sad because we use this daily!

Smooth Stroller, Great Quality
I received this stroller as a gift off of my baby registry when I was pregnant with my first child in 2018. I now have a second child and am using it again with baby #2. I love this stroller. I can (and have) taken this stroller everywhere and anywhere. The big wheels make it easy to roll even on gravel. Neither my husband nor I have ever had a problem with the front wheel sticking in the almost 5 years we’ve been using this stroller. Our hope it to get another year or two out of it before converting to a wagon.

DO NOT BUY!!!
Bought this for our newborn 4 months ago and immediately started having issues with our front wheel. Wheel locks up while in swivel position and is impossible to maneuver. Would not recommend!

Great except the front tire
I've had this stroller for about 7 years now. We have been trying to use it with our second child but the front tire drives me absolutely insane!! I don't remember it being like that when we used it with our first kid but I know we didn't even end up using it that much, so it must've still had issues. I've tried readjusting the whole tire so many times and nothing helps. The tire basically gets stuck sideways and will not rotate itself to be straightened out when turning, requiring us to manually fix it. Not very convenient and at that point I'd rather just lug the car seat around instead of dealing with the stroller nonsense. For $200 I'd expect a better design. We love all our other Graco products so this is super disappointing!

Have trouble maneuvering.
The locking mechanism doesn’t work properly and it’s quite embarrassing that I have to constantly re-align the front wheel to move forward.

Do not recommend
It’s ok for going “off-road” since it has big wheels but the front wheel locks, it doesn’t work!

Bad wheels
I got this for my baby shower and the back wheel keeps going flat every time I go to use it I have to pump it up and it's a pain. Now that I have read the reviews I wish I wouldn't have gotten this one.

Front Wheel Sticks
Nice stroller except the front wheel. If you stop moving and then turn it will catch and not let you go forward. Absolutely unsafe and so frustrating.

Front wheel doesn't turn correctly
Loved this stroller for the first month, then the front wheel stopped working correctly and gets stuck horizontally. We have to stop the stroller and go to the front to turn the wheel back the correct way.

Terrible front wheel
We registered and received this stroller from our baby shower. Our daughter is a month old and we’ve used the stroller maybe 5 times and hate it! The front wheel gets stuck and you have to either kick the wheel or straighten it out with you hand. It’s super frustrating as you’ll be strolling along just fine and boom! the front wheel will stick and not let you move forward. Super frustrating as it’s not a cheap stroller by any means and we do like the height of the stroller.

Front wheel malfunctions
I was excited to get this stroller. I was looking for something easy with maneuverability for my busy day to day lifestyle. I chose this stroller because of its design and the room to grow with my child. Everything else seems to fine but the front wheel gets stuck sideways and you end up having to drag it around or constantly stop to readjust the front wheel. Super inconvenient on daily strolls but a nightmare in a busy crowd. I wanted to love this stroller but it was a waste of money.

Seat recline doesn’t adjust to upright
This stroller worked fine to click the car seat into and handles well in the snow and cold but the seat won’t adjust to the most upright. We’ve only used it a couple times because of that. There are grooves for it to adjust and our baby tries to sit more upright but the seatback stops before it gets to the grooves for the upright setting and won’t lock in place. No amount of forcing has helped it.

Front wheel issues
I have had this stroller for some time now, we didn’t know that the front wheel issue was so common and we dealt with it. But we have a baby on the way and we’re going to have to get a new jogger and car seat that will attach to it. We thought we just had a design flaw on this one and said “ah let’s just get the most current graco jogger” but after reading countless reviews, we all have had the same exact issue with the front wheel not being able to take turns when you stop amd turn or back up and turn. It’s honestly a little embarrassing when navigating through stores, crowds, trails, etc. would not ever recommend.

Front Wheel Issues
We had high hopes for this stroller, but the front wheel renders it almost completely useless. The wheel turns and stops the stroller as soon as we try to lean or turn in a new direction. When we walk with friends or have a babysitter over, we don’t let them push the stroller because it’s too hard to navigate. It’s nice that the car seat clicks in so easily, but it can hardly be used to go on walks or jogs because of the wheel. Disappointed because it was not inexpensive. Would strongly advise against buying this model.

Unsafe - front wheel issue can cause tipping
I was so excited to get this stroller for the convenience factor. The front wheel maneuverability (or lack there of) is a big issue. When you stop or change directions the front wheel gets stuck. When you go to push, it can get so stuck that the stroller tips. Seems like I’m not the only one with this issue, and I’ve tried the wd40 of the wheel joint recommendation they provided. This did not work either. I wish this company would stand behind the product and work to resolve issues with unhappy customers by replacing their defective stroller that you spent a lot of money on.

Fantastic jogger stroller
This is my 2nd one. My first had over 2000 miles on it before the front wheel bearing gave out. Not exactly sure why everyone is having such a problem with the front wheel. It's really not that complicated to figure out how to lock or unlock the front wheel.

Front wheel doesn't let you steer it at all
We got this stroller as a gift about an year ago, but recently the front wheel has become a big problem. You can't steer it at all and need to lift it multiple times, just to get the direction right. It has reached to a point that it has become useless and we can't carry it anywhere.

Horrible stroller, the front wheel sticks.
Graco Fastaction stroller is not made for jogging or steady pace walking the reason being is every time we go on a walk for over a year now the wheel has stuck and we are fed up. This stroller front wheel does not work.

FRONT WHEEL GETS STUCK
We got this a few months ago as a baby shower gift. Started off great! Loved it. BUT. Now the front wheel constantly gets stuck and jars my baby all around when trying to straighten it out!! I am beyond frustrated as this was not a cheap product. Seems like every review talks about this issue.

Disappointment and embarrassing
I bought this stroller system as a baby shower present for my daughter-in-law last year. I just took my granddaughter trick or treating and the stroller does not move. The front wheel does not turn at all … you literally have to lift the stroller using the handle bar and point the front in the direction you want to go. It turns out she has been dealing with the issue the entire time. I’m sorry I chose this gift for her now.

Front Wheel Issues!!!!
We purchased this stroller and after about six months of use the front wheel gets stuck or during a jog it begins to shake uncontrollably until the stroller is brought to a complete stop. Seems like the front wheel is a common issue. Hope they figure it out.

Wheel Defect
I wanted to like this stroller. It started off as a very smooth ride for my baby. But the front wheel locking mechanism is defective. My wheel gets stuck all of the time which is embarrassing while out and about. The wheel will get stuck going sideways. Due to Covid and the weight of the stroller, we hardly ever use it! It’s disappointing as it rides so smooth for all of one month. Then the wheel gets stuck and you feel like an idiot for wasting all of the money for a stroller that doesn’t function. And it’s not something you can replace because it’s on the body of the stroller. So replacing the wheel wouldn’t help. It’s the chassis.

Waste of money!
The front wheel on this stroller is awful. The lock feature broke on my stroller almost immediately, and the tire is always losing air. I have replaced the front tire a couple of times but always ends up going flat. Having to pump up your tire every time you decide to use the stroller is not convenient.
Now both the front and one back tire are flat and have detached from the rim. When I tried to order parts AGAIN my model number can suddenly no longer be found?
I can't believe this stroller cost me over $200. Buyers beware!
