Issue

Certain child car seats may not comply with the dynamic testing requirements of Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations. During testing, bolts that secure the base of the seat to the backrest were observed to tear through, or partially through, the plastic shell, leaving exposed sharp edges and protrusions. These sharp edges could injure a child occupant, or a parent/caregiver. Correction: All registered owners will receive the parts and installation instructions necessary to reinforce their car seats. Non-registered owners of affected car seats, or owners who have moved, should contact Harmony Juvenile Products’ customer service department (1-877-306-1001) to receive instructions regarding obtaining the reinforcement parts. The affected car seats should not be returned to the retailer.
