Production Dates: May 20, 2001, to and including February 15, 2002
Noncompliance: The seats have a snap in the upholstery directly over the locking belt adjustment mechanism (A-Loc Adjuster). When the upholstery is attached by the snap to the cover of the A-Loc Adjuster, it may cause tension in the upholstery due to the weight of the child, which may prevent the complete engagement of the A-Loc Adjuster allowing some slippage in the harness restraints. These seats fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213 "Child Restraint Systems." In the event of a vehicle crash, the child may not be properly restrained.
Corrective Action: Peg Perego will notify its customers and send repair instructions free of charge. Within 4-6 weeks, owners will receive a new plastic cover. Customers can register for instructions and a replacement cover by visiting Peg Perego's website at www.perego.com.

Noncompliance: The bottom latch mechanism of the child seat on the left side does not completely engage the latching rod of the base that stays in the vehicle due to the improper positioning of the metal reinforcing bracket of the latch mechanism during manufacture. These child seats fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, "Child Restraint Systems".
Corrective Action: Peg Perego will notify its customers of the defect and provide instructions on how to identify affected seats and perform the repair.
