Recall 2012072: model year 2011

What's wrong: On certain child seats, an incorrect seat pad was inadvertently installed during the assembly process.

Insufficient energy-absorbing material and improper use of the child seat (as a result of failure to follow important safety warnings) could increase the risk of personal injury during a vehicle crash.
