Seats And Restraints#2014155April 25, 2014
118,557 units affected
On certain child car seats, the buckle may become contaminated with foreign material, such as food or dried liquids, and may over time become progressively more difficult to unlatch or become stuck in the latched position. If this occurs, users may experience difficulty unlatching or be unable to unlatch the buckle, which could increase the risk of injury in an emergency situation. Correction: Registered owners will be sent a letter containing proper care instructions and information on how to obtain a replacement buckle. Non-registered owners of affected car seats, or owners who have moved should contact Evenflo at 1-800-490-7591, or register online at www.buckle.evenflo.com. <a href="http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/motorvehiclesafety/safedrivers-childsafety-1411.html">Click here for more information</a>
Label#2013272August 7, 2013
1,325 units affected
Certain child car seats may not comply with the requirements of Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations. When used as a booster seat, the French labelling incorrectly instructs consumers to pass the shoulder portion of the vehicle seat belt through the lower lap-belt guide. Should the booster seat be installed this way, a piece of the lower lap-belt guide could break, exposing sharp edges which could injure a child occupant or caregiver. Correction: All registered owners will receive new labelling and instructions on how to affix the labels. Non-registered owners of affected car seats, or owners who have moved, should contact Evenflo at 937-773-3971 to register and obtain a labelling kit. The affected car seats should not be returned to the retailer. <a href="http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safedrivers-childsafety-1385.html">Click here for more information</a>
