Maxi Cosi Mico Infant Car Seats Recalled

By , About.com GuideFebruary 6, 2010

Follow me on:

More than 20,000 Maxi Cosi Mico infant car seats are being recalled because the car seat may not snap all the way into the base, which means the car seat could fly off the base in a crash.

Maxi Cosi Mico models 22-371 and 22-372 and the base-only model 22-515 are included in this recall. The car seats were manufactured before June 28, 2008. Maxi Cosi Mico car seats made after that date have a redesigned base with a spring that helps lock the car seat onto the base.

If you own a Maxi Cosi Mico infant car seat that is included in this recall, the manufacturer indicates that it is still safe to use the car seat for now, but you should pull up on the car seat after putting it in the base, to ensure that irt is fully locked into position. Registered owners should receive information and repair kits automatically. If you have this car seat and you are not contacted, you should get in touch with the company to receive a repair kit. Visit the Maxi Cosi Mico infant car seat recall page for further information, phone numbers and email addresses.
