CPSC, NHTSA, and Dorel Juvenile Group Inc. Announce Recall to Repair Infant Car Seats/Carriers
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
When the seat is used as a carrier, the plastic handle can unexpectedly release from the carrying position. When this happens, an unrestrained infant can fall to the ground and suffer injuries.
What to do
Consumers can continue to use the "Designer 22" as a car seat but should stop using it as a carrier immediately and contact Dorel Juvenile Group to receive a repair kit.
