THE SHOULDER BELT ON MY CHILD'S SAFETY 1ST CAR SEAT BECAME WRAPPED AROUND HER NECK AND UNDER HER ARM. SHE PULLED THE TIGHTENING STRAP BETWEEN HER LEGS WHICH CAUSED HER TO STRANGLE. THE RELEASE BUTTON DID NOT WORK TO ALLOW SLACK ON THE BELT. MY DAUGHTER WAS CUT OUT OF THE CAR SEAT JUST BEFORE THE AMBULANCE ARRIVED. WHEN I CONTACTED THE COMPANY, THEY SENT ME A REPAIR KIT WITH "CAR SEAT OIL" IN IT. MY CHILD HAD STRANGULATION MARKS AROUND HER NECK AS WELL AS UNDER HER ARM. *TR

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
