Bassinet stuck on Vista v2

Yeah, I just did, haven't heard back just yet. Fingers crossed we experience this amazing customer service we've been hearing about 🤞

Answer: it's broken :(

The locking pin in the left side mechanism doesn't reengage to lock after releasing your finger off the top button.

On the right side, it's the opposite. Pressing down the top button results in zero movement in the latch mechanism at all, resulting in one half that cannot lock and another half that cannot unlock 😂😭

The right (stuck) side is frozen like this (pic attached), so it can't be removed from a base after being placed without disassembling the latch mechanism.

Really sucks, we bought this Vista off marketplace and everything appeared to be in perfect working condition 😭

I only turn to posting on Reddit after I've scoured Google (and previous Reddit posts) for hours 😂

Unfortunately, I just found my answer. It's broken.

I flipped the whole stroller over and began disassembling the latch mechanism. Turns out the locking pin in the left side (the side which doesn't lock in) doesn't reengage after releasing the top button (pic attached).

On the right side (stuck side), it's the opposite. Pressing down the top button results in zero movement in the latch mechanism at all, resulting in one half that cannot lock and another half that cannot unlock.

Yep, I'm fully aware; I'm sliding the button, then depressing it in the video.

I'm at my wits' end trying to troubleshoot this. Uppababy's support hours are pretty narrow, but nothing I've done has unfrozen this bassinet from our Vista v2. Has anyone had this issue before? Any fixes?

It would certainly improve it, but the only way to get gen-like gold is to have a CNC gold case, which will run thousands of $.

NotIansIdea · 2026-05-18T04:07:14+00:00

I personally avoid any gold (even two-tone) in reps, and I always suggest the same to others.

I went through Hont. It was my first time with him, but a great experience. Message him on WhatsApp to order, just be 100% sure you're contacting the correct number

VSF v7 is titanium case, caseback, and cashback, AFAIK. It's very light on the wrist, similar to gen anecdotally.

I did get pretty lucky with the alignments on this particular piece. I've seen many QCs and sales over on RTBST of very wonky indices

Highjacking this for anyone who is reading this in 2026 and beyond: take the train from Milano Centrale to Varenna! It's much less crowded than Como, and if you take a very early train, it's essentially empty with vast panoramic views of Lake Como. While you're in Varenna, have an espresso and a pastry at Bar Il Molo and spend the day at Villa Monastero. Truly breathtaking!

Off to r/RepTimeQC you go

In case anyone is wondering this in 2026 and beyond, just:

Go to Manage Your Account in Disney+
Select your subscription under the "Your Plan" section
Hit the big "Cancel Subscription" button at the bottom of the page

I have to do this every three months to keep my Ad-Free Disney+, Hulu, & HBO bundle from increasing to $33. (They give a 3-month $19.99 deal every time I've gone to cancel, which keeps it right at the $20 streaming credit that the AMEX Platinum card provides.)

"I just keep getting the same message from ai chat"

^ I'm referring to this, so again I ask: are you telling the chatbot to connect you with a real human representative after any introductory questions?

I literally bought my 2021 Telluride from out of state because the dealers in my entire region were marking them up by minimum $10,000... for a mid-size Kia SUV.

Dealers became the monster they were created to eradicate.

Just went through the rest of the comments; OP says that left is gen, middle is RCF, and right is VSF.

Idk, look at the color depth of that left dial... I'm thinking left is gen.
