Issue
On certain child seats, an incorrect seat pad was inadvertently installed during the assembly process. The pad lacks slow-recovery energy-absorbing material and the French-language airbag warnings, which are required by Canadian regulations. Insufficient energy-absorbing material and improper use of the child seat (as a result of failure to follow important safety warnings) could increase the risk of personal injury during a vehicle crash. Correction: Consumers are advised to call Dorel at 1-800-544-1108 to request a repair kit, which consists of a replacement seat pad and instructions for proper installation.
