What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where the child restraint may not adequately protect the child in a crash, increasing injury risk, but no specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.
Plain-English summary
Dorel Juvenile Group (DJG) is recalling certain infant child restraints, models IC124FSM (Onboard 35) and IC123FSM (Comfy Carry), produced from May 2011 through April 2012. These units were sold without the separate seat base that contains the required LATCH attachment assembly. Without the LATCH assembly, these units fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, "Child Restraint Systems."
The defect poses a safety risk because, without the LATCH system, the seat may be more difficult to properly secure. In the event of a vehicle crash, the child may not be adequately protected and is at an increased risk for injury.
DJG will notify registered owners and distributors. Bases which include LATCH systems will be provided at no cost to all those who verify they have the affected units. Non-registered owners should contact DJG at 1-877-416-8111 or by email at [email protected]. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit safercar.gov.
