Graco SnugRide Recall Its Infant Seat Due To A Choking Hazard. Graco is recalling SnugRide Infant Seats because they may pose a choking hazard to small children. The Graco SnugRide Infant Seat recall includes standalone SnugRide seats manufactured between Aug. 1, 2006, and June 30, 2007. They were sold at mass merchandisers, specialty retail stores and department stores from August 2006 until last week. The Graco SnugRide Infant Seat Recall includes more than 300,000 defective car seats.

According to Graco, the backing of the seat pad included with the SnugRide Infant Seats may pull away from the seams, exposing the pad filling that could pose a potential choking hazard. Despite the potential choking hazard, Graco maintains that the SnugRide seats are still effective child restraint devices.

Recalled Products Model Numbers

Model numbers included in the Graco SnugRide Infant Seat recall include: 8609FOF2, 8609FOF3, 8616FOF2, 8616FOF3, 8643DDH2, 8643DDH3, 8643CDR2, 8643DH03, 8643SUP2, 8643SUP3, 8643JOS2, 8643JOS3, 8643MDW3, 8643PWC3, 8643SFJ3, 8645FMT2, 8645FMT3, 8645GLM3, 8645GLN3, 8645HEM2, 8645HEM3, 8645MYC2, 8646SML3, 8645MYC3, 8645MRG3, 8645PKR2, 8645SNY2, 8646SND2, 8645THR2, 8645THR3, 8646FIE2, 8646FIE3, 8646GRT3 and 8646RRY3. The model number and date of manufacture can be found on the label on the back of the car seats. Graco said the recall doesn’t include any SnugRide models made before August 2006, as these products have a different design, and doesn’t affect SnugRide models sold as a travel system.

Graco says consumers should not return the SnugRide Infant Seats to retailers. Rather, they should contact the company by calling 1-800-345-4109 Monday-Friday between 8 am and 5 pm EST or visit www.gracobaby.com to determine whether their car seat may be affected and to obtain instructions on how to receive a replacement cover.

In August, Graco recalled more than 276,000 ComfortSport 5-point convertible harness car seats because an anchorage belt could be misrouted during assembly of the seat. Graco said that the misrouting of the anchor belt allows the ComfortSport to angle back more than 70 degrees in a frontal crash, increasing the risk of injury. As with the SnugRide recall, Graco also provided consumers with a repair kit for the defective ComfortSport.

The employees at Parker Waichman were extremely knowledgeable and very helpful in resolving all matters pertaining to my case. I consulted with several members of the Parker Waichman team throughout the process and I was extremely impressed with their knowledge and genuine concern for me as an individual. I worked extensively with Benita Rollis towards the end of my case. She was extremely professional and detail oriented. She was always there to answer any question I had no matter how insignificant it may have been. I could not have done it without Benita and Parker Waichman helping me navigate this process every step of the way. I would highly recommend Parker Waichman.

Parker Waichman is a great law firm and most of all they treat you like more than just a client .I was dealing with another law firm prior to dealing with Parker Waichman and they never returned my calls and treated me like a burden rather than a client. But all of that changed when I came to this firm they always call me back and never make me feel as though I am a burden . They also work very hard for there clients and give you constant updates on how your case is going . I have sent family members of mines to them knowing that they will have the same care and compassion for them as they had for me.
