A Child Seat Injury Lawyer to Fight On Your Child's Behalfr

Sadly, every day in America, there are more than 500 injuries and 4 deaths among children involved in vehicular accidents, according the Centers for Disease Control. Even though this has long been the #1 cause of death among children, manufacturers of child car safety seats have not proven to be consistent in their efforts to create safe child seats for vehicles.

In the recent years, more than 10 million child car safety seats have been recalled by their manufacturers. It is hard to imagine a more tragic arena for a defective product injury. These recalls include the major manufacturers whose compose the vast majority of child car safety seats sold in the US, listed here alphabetically:

  • Britax
  • Century
  • Cosco (Dorel)
  • Evenflo
  • Fisher-Price
  • Graco
  • Kolcraft

Standards that child car safety seats must meet to prevent injury are established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Products that were found, after their release to the market, to fail to meet these standards had such defects as:

  • Defects with the seat clip
  • Inadequate or improper seat padding
  • Seat buckle defects or malfunction
  • Detach mechanism failure, defect, or malfunction
