A headrest that shifts unexpectedly may increase the risk of injury in a crash.
What parents need to know
Evenflo is recalling certain Reo by Revolve360 child car seats in the Nantucket, Danvers, Chelsea, Holden, Brookline, and Lenox color variants. The recall was issued because the headrest may shift unexpectedly when the seat is in certain rear or forward-facing positions during a crash. This movement means the seats do not comply with federal safety standards, and a shifting headrest may increase the risk of injury to a child during an accident.
The remedy for this recall is currently under development. The official notice does not instruct owners to stop using the product, and a remedy is still being developed. Owners should refer to the official recall notice and the owner notification letter for further information. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk are expected to be mailed soon, and additional letters will be sent once the remedy becomes available.
While an unrestrained child is at far greater risk than a child in a recalled seat, please consult the official notice and your owner notification letter for guidance regarding your specific product. You may also contact the manufacturer directly for further assistance.
