Chest Clip, Buckle, Harness
Filed Jan 23, 2025TX

I am writing to report a potential safety issue with the Chicco Fit 360 carseat. I have encountered a problem with the magnetic chest clip that detaches without pressing the release buttons, creating a risk that the child may not be properly secured in the seat. This issue has occurred multiple times and upon research I have come across numeorus other people who have also experienced the same issue even after having the clip replaced. I believe this is a big enough issue that could compromise the effectiveness of the harness system in securing the child during travel, particularly in the event of a sudden stop or crash.

Chest Clip, Buckle, Harness
Filed Nov 14, 2024RI

I have the Chicco Fit360 and the magnetic chest clip is no longer magnetic it was coming apart with little to no movement. I would buckle the chest clip and then move it to put it in position and it would come apart. I know this is a common problem with this particular car seat and something needs to be done before a child dies or gets seriously injured because the chest clip comes apart while driving!

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
