Britax Recalls Car Seats

Due to the harness straps that can slip off their connections on the back of the car seat Britax has decided to recall their Britax Frontier combination car seats. This problem happens when the straps are adjusted one at a time.

Affected models are;

• E9L54E7 (Red Rock)
• E9L54H6 (Rushmore)
• E9L54H7 (Pink Sky)
• E9L54M6 (Canyon)
• E9L5490 (Sahara)
• manufactured between April 1 and Sept. 18 2008

Britax will provide a repair kit of two rubber caps that can be placed on the seats to keep the straps in place. The company will mail the caps with an instruction sheet to all registered customers who bought the seats. You can get more details at www.FrontierRecall.com. If you haven't registered your Frontier yet, you can call 800-683-2045 to do so. The repair kits are expected to start shipping in mid-January.

Britax, which designs and manuractures car seats and strollers, is owned by Britax International of the United Kingdom.
