What’s wrong with it?
In the event of a crash, the child seat occupant is at an increased risk of injury.
Baby Trend, Inc.
(Baby Trend) is recalling certain Hybrid LX 3-in-1 Centennial booster seats, model number FB58181, manufactured on July 23, 2016, and Hybrid LX 3-in-1 Kiwi booster seats, model number FB48417, manufactured on July 14, 2016.
The affected child seats have a center adjuster rivet that may pull through or break if the harness is being used with a child weighing more than 40 lbs.
As such, these child seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 213, “Child Restraint Systems.”
