Child seat
The defect
Evenflo IS recalling 1,038 discovery infant child restraints, models 3021769z and 3021854z, manufactured on february 4, 2008. due to a manufacturing variability, some units may have been produced without complete assembly of the release handle located on the back of the seat.
The risk
Under certain conditions, the seat may become separated from the base, potentially resulting in serious injury to the child.
The remedy
Evenflo will notify owners and offer a free replacement seat. owners should contact evenflo toll-free at 1-800-233-5921 to obtain a replacement seat. owners and caregivers should continue using the seat in the vehicle without the convenience base while waiting for the replacement seat to arrive. the recall began on april 1, 2008. model numbers that do not begin with "302" and end with a "z" are not included in this campaign.
