Recall Alert: Combi Child-Safety Seats

As reported on Mother Proof yesterday, Combi USA, a South Carolina-based company, issued a recall for 67,000 child-safety seats due to a failure during collision testing. The company has received no reports of injuries, but testing by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration revealed that the base of the car seat had the potential to separate from the frame during frontal crashes.

The models affected include the Centre, Centre, ARB and Shuttle rear-facing infant seats. The company will supply customers with a free retrofit kit. You can go to www.combi-intl.com for more information or call the company’s consumer relations department at 800-543-7734.
