CPSC, NHTSA and Kolcraft Announce Recall of Infant Car Seats/Carriers

CPSC · 00034 · published 1999-12-20

CPSC campaign 00034

Hazard

When used as an infant carrier, the handle can unexpectedly move from the intended carrying position, causing the seat to suddenly rotate. When this happens, the infant can fall to the ground and suffer serious injuries.

Remedy

Check the label on the side of the product for the manufacturing date and five-digit model/style number and contact Kolcraft, which will provide, free of charge, an easy-to-install repair kit. Until the carrier has been repaired, do not to carry the seat by its handle, but by the head and foot of the seat. The seat still can and should be used as a car seat.
