EXTON, Pa., March 14  /PRNewswire/ -- Graco Children's Products Inc. today announced a Safety Notice regarding a labeling non-compliance issue for a limited number of its CarGo(TM) Booster Car Seats manufactured from January 9, 2007 through March 3, 2008.
The labeling non-compliance issue notice is the result of an incorrect NHTSA vehicle safety hotline number that appears on models of the following CarGo Booster Car Seats: 8487BELI, 8487SMP, 8487WBR, 8686ROS, 8689FAR, 8D01ZPH, 8D02SYC, 8D03WIK, 8D04SDN, 8D05NWY, and 8D10CCE. The model number and date of manufacture can be found on the lower back of the car seat. These seats were sold in mass merchandisers, specialty retailers and department stores throughout the United States.
If a consumer calls the incorrect phone number printed on the affected models, they will hear a message that the number is not in service at this time. We recommend consumers check their instruction manual as the NHTSA hotline number is printed correctly there. The correct NHTSA vehicle safety hotline phone number is 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), and their Web site can be accessed at http://www.nhtsa.gov/. Consumers can also contact Graco by calling 1-800-345-4109 or by visiting http://www.gracobaby.com/ for further information.
To remedy the affected product, a correct sticker kit is being provided to consumers who have registered their car seat with Graco.
Consumers who own but have not registered their CarGo Booster Car Seat should call 1-800-345-4109 Monday-Friday between 8 am and 5 pm ET or visit http://www.gracobaby.com/ 24 hours a day to determine whether their CarGo Booster Car Seat may be affected by this announcement. When calling Graco, consumers should have the model number and date of manufacture of the car seat readily available.
This safety announcement does not affect the ability of the child restraint to protect a child in the case of a motor vehicle crash.
