Certain child car seats may not comply with the Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations and Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 - Child Restraint Systems, 213.1 Infant Restraint Systems and 213.2 - Booster Seats. The registration card included with the car seat does not contain a space for consumers to enter their e-mail addresses, certain label warnings and instructions may not be visible while the seat is in use, and the car seat's movable headrest could extend during a crash when installed rear-facing. Correction: No corrective recall action is required as these technical non-compliance conditions are deemed to be non-safety related.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2012407.
