What’s wrong
IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE CHILD MAY NOT BE ADEQUATELY RESTRAINED, THEREBY INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
