What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

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 structural defect in a child restraint system that increases the risk of injury in a crash, but the source text does not report any injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Evenflo Company, Inc. is recalling certain Revolve180 Litemax NXT child seats manufactured through March 31, 2025. The recall is due to a miscalibrated level indicator that can result in the child sitting more upright than intended when installed according to the instructions. This defect causes the seats to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 213, "Child Restraint Systems."

A child seat that is not reclined as intended increases the risk of injury in a crash. The source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities associated with this defect.

Owners will receive interim letters notifying them of the safety risk beginning September 1, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once a corrective remedy is available. Owners may contact Evenflo customer service at 1-800-233-5921 for more information.
