Safety Recall: Cosco, Safety 1st, Eddie Bauer Child Seats

Dorel Juvenile Group (DJG) is issuing a voluntary safety recall for certain Cosco, Safety 1st and Eddie Bauer brand child restraint systems manufactured during November 2003 through December 2005.

Although no injuries have been reported, there is a potential for the harness adjustment strap to loosen during use. If this were to occur, the harness may be loose around the child, possibly increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

The model number and date of manufacture may be found on a sticker located on the side or back of the child restraint system.

Cosco: Alpha Omega, Alpha Omega Elite: 22150, 22155, 22180, 22269;

Eddie Bauer: 3-in-1, Deluxe 3-in-1, Deluxe Convertible: 22740, 22750, 22755, 22756, 22757, 22770;
