The recall announced today is not related to how the seat performs while in a car. Parents should continue using these carriers as car seats. Kolcraft will provide a free repair kit designed to make the handle more secure. The repair can be done easily in the home. Consumers should not carry the seat by the handle until it has been repaired.
Consumers can continue to use the product as a car seat or in combination with the stroller.
Also, the Kolcraft Rock N Ride is not part of this recall.
