Detachable Child Seat Defects

Types of Child Seat Defects: Detachable Carrier Seats

A popular model of child safety seat has two components: a detachable carrier and a base that remains attached to the car. These car seats, often referred to as base carrier models, have proven susceptible to a wide range of product defects. The two components may become separated during the impact of a car crash, leaving an infant unguarded from serious personal injury or death. If your child has been hurt or killed due to a detachable carrier child seat defect or any other type of defect, we can help you.

Child Car Seat Recalls

There are seven major companies behind the majority of child car seats. They are Graco, Century, Cosco (Dorel), Evenflo, Fisher-Price, Kolcraft and Britax. These companies have recalled a combined total of more than 11 million car safety seats over the last decade. The same defects, including those associated with detachable carrier car seats, seem to pop up again and again. This is partially due to these companies focusing too much attention on their own bottom lines and not enough on the safety that their products are intended to provide. It is also partially due to lax safety standards set up by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which only requires a minimal amount of testing at very low standards. We are committed to holding these companies responsible for not doing what they have promised they would: protecting your child.
