A voluntary product recall alert has been issued for the Mothers Choice 3 in 1 Car Seat ( Model LB515) and the Baby Wise 3 in 1 Car Seat (Model LB513) after a small number of seats came in for repair due to a malfunctioning buckle.

The car seats were sold throughout New Zealand between November 2007 and April 2011 at SuperCheap Auto, Repco, Farmers, The Warehouse, Smith City and specialty stores.

The malfunctioning buckles do not cause injury to children but could make it difficult to unbuckle a child quickly in an emergency. All customers should contact IGC Dorel Customer Service on 0800 628 000 as soon as possible to arrange to have a new buckle installed, or alternatively return the car seats to the place of purchase for a full refund.
