Graco Children's Products Announces a Safety Notice for the Frazier(TM) ComfortSport(TM) Car Seat

Posted on: Tuesday, 9 December 2008, 16:58 CST

EXTON, Pa., Dec. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Graco Children's Products Inc. has determined that a labeling non-compliance affects a limited number of Frazier(TM) ComfortSport(TM) car seats.

The labeling non-compliance is the result of an optional body pillow that partially obscures an important airbag warning label on approximately 43,994 ComfortSport(TM) car seats with model numbers 8C04FRR and 8C04FRR2 model seat in the Frazier(TM) fashion manufactured from November 1, 2006 through October 8, 2007. Models produced after October 8, 2007 are equipped with body pillows that have a duplicative warning label permanently affixed to the body pillow itself and therefore, are not affected by this notice.

Consumers should remove the body pillow from the seat and discard it. Removal of this body pillow does not affect the safety or function of the car seat. Once the body pillow has been removed, the airbag warning label that is permanently affixed to the inside cushion of the seat should be fully visible. The body pillow should not be reattached under any circumstances.

Consumers who own but have not registered their Frazier(TM) ComfortSport(TM) car seats should call 1-800-345-4109 Monday-Friday between 8 am and 5 pm EST or visit www.gracobaby.com 24 hours a day to determine whether their Frazier(TM) ComfortSport(TM) car seats may be affected by this announcement. When calling Graco, consumers should have the model number and date of manufacture of the car seat readily available.

This safety announcement does not affect the ability of the child restraint to protect a child in the case of a motor vehicle crash.
