Defective Child Seats

Child Seat PicDefective Child Safety Seats

When you place your baby or young child in a child safety seat, you trust that the manufacturer has provided a safe seat that will protect your child in case of a car accident. Child car seats have saved many children from injury or wrongful death.

Child safety seats can be an effective means to keep children safe in a car accident. In some cases, however, manufacturers design, manufacture, and sell child safety seats that can harm a child rather than protect him or her.

  • An all-in-one car seat that parents could use in and out of the car was shown to be unsafe. Two small, easily broken plastic pieces held the seat in place. In an accident, the seat broke loose causing the child to be injured.

  • A pull-down tray on a car seat seemed to provide extra protection. Instead, injury occurred when a child’s head hit the tray causing severe brain damage. The manufacturer knew of the potential danger.
