Britax Recalls 23,000 Infant Car Seats | 2010.11.07 |
About 23,000 infant care seats that may have faulty harness clips are being recalled by Britax Child Safety Inc. of Charlotte, N.C. The clip on the chest of car seats can break loose and pose a laceration or choking hazard, says the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Associated Press reported. So far, Britax has received three reports of cuts and scratches and one report of a child placing a broken clip in his mouth. The Chinese-made seats were sold across the U.S. and on the Britax website from June 2009 to October 2010, the AP reported. Consumers can get a free repair kit by calling Britax at 888-427-4829. |
