An official Health Canada notice concerns Britax. On certain Roundabout 55 infant/child restraints, the French warning label and the fitment guide label incorrectly lists the forward facing height as 124.5 cm (49 in) instead of the correct height of 116.8 cm (46 in) as described on the English version of the identical label. The incorrect label recommended standing height for forward facing children may cause consumer confusion but should not lead to improper use of the infant/child restraint if the primary recommended fitment guides also on the label and user guides are followed. Correction: Britax will advise & provide registered consumers and retailers a remedy kit with replacement labels and instructions. Published 2011-03-16.
