Problem These seats may be missing components on the base or the carrier shell. The components are 1 or 2 metal hooks and their retainer pins on the base, or the mating "U" shaped bars on the carrier shell that are used to attach the carrier to the base. Please note: all affected model numbers may also begin with the letter "A". A model number listed but beginning with an addition "A" is also included in the recalled seats. If the hooks, pins or "U" bars are missing, the carrier may not be securely attached to the base. In the event of a sudden stop or crash, the carrier could detach from the base, possibly resulting in serious injury or death.
