Graco Recalls Nearly 45,000 Car Seats over Airbag Label

December 11, 2008

Graco has issued a recall for Comfortsport™ convertible car seats, in the Frazier™ Fashion that were manufactured from November 1, 2006 to October 8, 2007. The 43,994 seats named in the recall have a large supplemental pad or "body pillow" that partially obscures the child airbag warning label on the seat pad. Serious injury could occur to the child if the seat is improperly belted in a vehicle.

The Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213 "Child Restraint Systems" requires that all labels be visible to prevent improper placement in a vehicle. The supplemental pillows are provided for comfort and do not affect the ability of the seat to protect your child if involved in an accident. Graco is notifying owners to discard the pillows and continue using the seat.
