Graco will also offer a replacement buckle at no cost to any consumer who has
an infant car seat not included in this recall, but who would like to update their
buckle to Graco’s current buckle design. The installation of the harness is very
straightforward and a clear instruction leaflet is provided. Additional assistance
can be found at www.graco.net.
Incorrect National Safety Mark Label. The label should read (CMVSS 213,
213.2) Consumers should contact Elfe Juvenile Products 1-800-667-8184 to
receive, free of charge, a repair kit consisting of a new NSM label and
instructions on the location to affix the label. The affected restraint systems
should not be returned to the retailer.
On certain Graco Nautilus and MyRide 65 model child car seats manufactured
between September 2008 and July 2013, the buckle may become
contaminated with foreign material, such as food or dried liquids. Over time, the
buckle may become progressively more difficult to unlatch or become stuck in
the latched
If this problem occurs, it may be difficult or impossible to unlatch the buckle,
which could delay the removal of a child from the seat and increase the risk of
injury in an emergency situation in which a prompt exit from the vehicle is
required. There is no risk if the buckle is not contaminated and is functioning
normally.
Car seats manufactured after July 2013 use a different harness buckle. The
recall also does not affect Graco infant car seats and travel systems.
All registered owners will receive a letter containing proper care instructions and
information on how to obtain a replacement buckle. A free repair kit consisting of a new and
improved buckle as well as installation instructions will be available as of May 2014. While
waiting for the replacement buckle to arrive, if the original buckle is difficult to unlatch, the
buckle can be cleaned to restore functionality. Instructions on how to clean the buckle can
be found at: www.graco.net.
