Recall of 70 thousand children with child seat injuries
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has recently announced that more than 71000 children's car seats will be recalled by the manufacturer, Britax, because of the risk of injury to infants or children.
According to the announcement, the recall of the safety seat handle may break and break, resulting in the sudden fall of the seat.At present, Bao De Shi has received 74 reports of accidents, one of which was hit by a seat falling and his head hit.
According to the CPSC notice, before implementing the recall, Bao De Shi also received potential risk reports involving other products.
This morning, Cindy Barlow, who is responsible for recall affairs, said in an interview with the Legal Evening News that before the remedial measures were implemented, the buyer should hold the front and rear seats and take them to the designated recall locations, which could not be used by the seat, and there would be corresponding maintenance at that time.
There are hidden dangers. Bao De Shi has implemented the two recall, involving over 100 thousand products.
The recalled seats were manufactured between October 1, 2014 and July 1, 2015, involving more than 71000 children's seats in the three models of B-Safe 35, B-safe 35 Elite and B-Safe 35 Travel System.
CPSC said that the affected products can only be used in backward style child safety seats (generally used in the low age infants and children's reverse direction child safety seat), the seat has awning, black frame and base, the body has a variety of colors. The product type and production date are printed on the back of the seat.
Reported that Target, Amazon and other dealers have sales of the affected products, priced at 210 to 250 U.S. dollars.
Bao De Shi released information that consumers who had previously registered could receive free maintenance automatically, and unregistered users could log on to the company's recall website for confirmation. Until the remedial measures are taken, the car seat should not be raised or used on the seat.
CPSC said that before implementing the recall, Bao De Shi also received potential risk reports on other products: if children bite the handrails of the baby's car, the foam filling may fall off to pieces, causing suffocation to children. 117 reports on this issue have been received, 5 of which are choking or vomiting foam debris.
CPSC said these baby carriages were recalled, involving the baby's B-Ready baby carriage and the B-Ready replaceable sunshade seat. These products were produced between April 2010 and December 2012, of which about 49000 were sold in the United States and 11000 were sold in Canada.
Frequent problems
Many tests in China have been questioned.
Legal Evening News reporter through the search "Bao De Shi recalls" found that the company's products were exposed. In 2015, Bao De Shi announced the recall of its ClickTight series Marathon, Boulevard and Advocate models of children's car seat. The reason for the recall is to find out the safety belt unlocking button of some batches of products. It is possible that there is a situation of sticking and rebound after pressing, resulting in that the safety belt can not be locked and can not play a role when it is attacked. As a result, in case of emergency braking, the baby may be injured because of the loosening of the seat belt.
According to media reports last year, the AQSIQ in 2015 reported that children's safety seats should be one of the key regulators to expand the scope of spot checks. The National Key Laboratory of motor vehicle and parts inspection in Wuxi, according to the national standards, has selected 15 batches of imported children's car safety seats for testing, and 13 batches of unqualified products have been detected. The brands involved include the British brand Bao De Shi.
Bao De Shi recalled a baby car safety seat because of the risk of falling off. In November of the same year, he recalled 60 thousand children's car seats for the suffocation risk in November of the same year. In August 2013, the Hongkong Consumer Council carried out tests on 27 imported brand safety seats for children. The children's safety seats were tested with formaldehyde, and two standards were evaluated for safety and installation convenience. A Britax/Romer from the United Kingdom was awarded the lowest 2 star rating. In November 12, 2013, CCTV's "life early reference" program tested ten domestic and foreign automobile safety seat brands. Back in February 2012
According to the report, Bao de safety seats will not be eligible for inspection, but they are still selling well on the electronic business platforms. If there is any safety hazard such as the unsafe seat such as Bao De Shi, who will pay for the safety of children's travel?
Company response
Recall does not involve the Chinese market, Hai Tao can send mail inquiries.
Kate Clark, a spokesman for Bao De Shi, told the Legal Evening News reporter that the recall product was not sold in China, so the recall did not affect the Chinese market.
In addition, Cindy Barlow, who was in charge of recall affairs, confirmed that the affected products were not sold in the Chinese market, and that all the other seats had no problem.
She told reporters that if consumers bought the affected products locally, users should hold the front and rear seats before the remedial measures were implemented, take them to the designated recall locations, and do not use the handle of the seat, then there will be corresponding maintenance.
For journalists who asked if Chinese consumers went abroad to buy or sea products to be recalled and repaired, Cindy said that consumers bought these products overseas (the products sold in the US, Mexico and Canada). They could send mail to the customer service department, and the email address was britax.recall@britax.com, looking for further help.

In Taobao Tmall flagship store, the price of the safe seat is from 1880 yuan to 4580 yuan, and the product publicity is generally used as a gimmick of "Royal Royalty" and "star money".
Legal Evening News reporter search found that the recall products are not listed in China's official website products, flagship stores also have no sales information.

Among them, only some businesses have tagged the information of the product type and so on in the product description. In a shop that buys B-Safe 35 children's seats, the reporter saw that the model described by his product was on the recall list.
