Maxi-Cosi recalls unsafe kids' car seat

Children’s car seat producer Maxi-Cosi announced yesterday (Mon) that it was recalling all of its FamilyFix car seats produced before 3 March 2010.

The firm said a mechanical problem in the seat made it impossible to guarantee maximum safety in case of a traffic accident. The firm said the problem had been discovered during a routine quality control operation.

It had affected only a small number of seats, and there had been no complaints by customers, Maxi-Cosi added.

Additional information is available at website www.maxi-cosi.de and over the free FamilyFix-Hotline (0800-601 162) from 8am to 10pm daily.
