Recall of the 2002-2003 Husky child restraints

Model(s): Husky child restraints
Production Dates: October 7, 2002 to December 8, 2003

Noncompliance: In the event of a vehicle crash, these restraints, when secured with a lap belt as described in the user's manual, could allow the child's head to move further forward than allowed by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, "Child Restraint Systems."

Corrective Action: Registered owners will be provided with labels and instructions for the application of the labels to be placed over the corresponding instructions in the current user's guide and on the restraint cover. Non-registered owners are strongly urged to register their child seat with the manufacturer in case of future safety recalls. Parents should continue to use the seat while waiting to receive and install the repair kit because it will still provide better protection than an adult seat belt or no restraint.
