NHTSA Campaign ID Number: 08C009
Synopsis:
Graco is recalling 43,994 Comfortsport(<WBR>TM) convertible car seats, in the Frazier Fashion, manufactured from November 1, 2006 through October 8, 2007. These seats were equipped with a large sized, supplemental pad or body pillow that partially obscures the child airbag warning label which is on the seat pad. The partial obscuring of this label fails to conform with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, Child Restraint Systems. Serious injury could occur to the child should the seat be improperly placed in the vehicle. Graco will notify owners and instruct them to discard the supplemental pillows. The pillows are provided for comfort only and do not affect the seat's ability to protect your child in the event of a crash. The recall is expected to begin during December 2008. Owners may contact Graco at 1-800-345-4109 or by e-mail at consumerservices@<WBR>gracobaby.<WBR>com.

I totally agree Kaytee. Unfortunately, many parents never bother to read the instructions or just don't think. You'd be surprised to hear some of the things I've seen while doing car seat inspections, and those are people who willingly came in for an inspection. LOL!
