What happened

Dorel Juvenile Group is recalling certain Maxi-Cosi Pria 85 Convertible child seats due to a safety hazard involving improper installation. When the seat is installed in forward-facing position and secured only with the lap belt—without also using the top tether—the seat may not adequately protect a child from head injury during a crash. This configuration fails to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard requirements for child restraint systems.

Owner notification letters were mailed on October 8, 2021. According to the recall notice, no remedy has been established at this time. Owners of affected seats should contact Dorel customer service at 1-877-657-9546 for further information.
