March 4, 2008 — -- Combi USA is voluntarily recalling 67,000 child safety seats.
Though Combi has received no reports of injuries, a recent test done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration revealed that the seat could potentially fail to adequately protect children in a frontal collision.
Models being recalled include Centre, Centre ARB and Shuttle rear-facing infant seat models 8065, 8074, 8086, 8087, 8520 and the travel systems that contain these seat models 4400, 4515 and 4520.
