DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE MAKING A TURN TRAVELING 25 MPH, THE CHILD SAFETY SEAT UNLATCHED FROM THE BASE AND FLIPPED OVER. NOW THE SEAT MUST BE PUSHED IN MULTIPLE TIMES TO ENSURE IT IS LATCHED TO THE BASE. THIS IS A COSCO 22-630 MRC MANUFACTURED JULY 26, 2005.
DT: THERE IS AN INTEGRATED CHILD SEAT MADE INTO THE VEHICLE. IF THE SEAT IS NOT CLICKED IN PROPERLY IT WILL ALLOW THE ENTIRE SEAT TO TILT FORWARD. CONSUMER'S CHILD WAS INJURED WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING AT 15 KM. HOSPITAL REPORTS WERE AVAILABLE. THE CONSUMER FELT THAT THERE SHOULD BE SOME TYPE OF RESTRAINT TO KEEP THE SEAT FROM MOVING FORWARD OR IF THERE COULD BE SOME TYPE OF WARNING SYSTEM ON THE DASH FOR EXAMPLE A CHECK CHILD SEAT LIGHT. SHE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, AND THEY TOLD HER THAT THEY WERE INDUSTRY STANDARDS. THE CONSUMER WAS LOCATED IN ONTARIO, CANDA. THE CHILD SEAT IS A DODGE.
I HAVE A 2003 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN SE WITH THE MIDDLE CHILD BENCH SEATS. MY 4 YEAR OLD SON PUT HIS JUICE CUP DOWN BETWEEN HIM AND THE INFANT SEAT BUCKLED NEXT TO HIM. THE JUICE CUP HIT THE SEAT BELT RELEASE FOR THE INFANT SEAT AND RELEASED IT. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN. IF I HADN'T HEARD THE CLICK OF THE RELEASE , I WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN MY 4 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WAS UNPROTECTED. *NLM
