What happened

Britax Child Safety, Inc. is recalling certain Advocate ClickTight, Boulevard ClickTight, and Marathon ClickTight child seats manufactured between August 1, 2014, and July 29, 2015. The recalled seats have a red harness adjuster button that may stick in the down position, which can allow the shoulder harness to loosen and fail to properly restrain a child during a crash, increasing injury risk.

Britax will notify registered owners and provide them with a free remedy kit containing lubricant to apply to the harness adjuster button. Affected consumers should contact Britax customer service at 1-888-427-4829 (option 3) or visit www.BritaxClickTightConvertibleRecall.com to receive the remedy kit.
