| Description |
Thorley Industries LLC d/b/a 4moms (4moms) is recalling certain 4moms Self Installing Rear-facing Infant Car Seats, model number 1032, manufactured July 1, 2016, to October 31, 2016. Due to a tight rivet, the affected car seats have a coupling hook that may not properly engage around the coupling pin, preventing the infant carrier portion from securely attaching to the seat base. |
| Consequences |
If the infant carrier does not properly attach to the base, the carrier can detach in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. |
| Corrective action |
4moms will notify owners and will replace the infant carrier portion, free of charge. The recall began on January 10, 2017. Owners may contact 4moms at 4moms.com/recalls or by calling 1-888-614-6667. |
| Notes |
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. |
