Mia Moda Viva Infant Car Seat Recall

By , About.com Guide   October 28, 2009

Follow me on:

More than 5,500 Mia Moda Viva and Viva Supreme infant car seats are recalled because of two separate issues that may make the seat unsafe in a crash. The metal harness splitter plate on the back of the car seat has sharp edges that can cut the harness. Also, the stay-in-car base can crack during a crash. Either issue could mean that your baby wouldn't be adequately restrained in a crash.

Affected models are 5000 (seat), 5001 (base), 5050 (seat), 5051 (base), 5070 (seat), 5071 (base), 5080 (seat) and 5081 (base). If you own one of these Mia Moda Viva or Viva Supreme infant car seat models, stop using it immediately. If you registered your car seat, the manufacturer will contact you directly regarding a full refund. If you didn't register your car seat, or you have other questions, call 877-546-8437.
