Recall 2013045: model year 2012
What's wrong: Certain infant/child seats may not comply with the dynamic testing requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 213 - Child Restraint Systems, and CMVSS 213.1 - Infant Restraint Systems. The car seat's adjustable carrying handle could change adjustment position during a crash. Also, the instruction manual and the labels affixed to the car seat contain various minor translation errors and omissions. Correction: A production change has been undertaken to remedy these technical non-compliance conditions. No corrective recall action is required as the technical non-compliance conditions are deemed to be non-safety related.
How do I know if my Graco SNUG35 is affected?
Check the label on the side, back or bottom of the seat for the model number and date of manufacture, and compare them with the model years and dates in the official notice.
Is the fix free?
Recall remedies are free from the maker. The official notice lists how to get it, and Recallify can contact the maker for you.
