MediumHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Eddie Bauer - Dorel. Certain car seats may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 213 - Child Restraint Systems. During manufacturer testing, the plastic seat shell cracked, which could allow the seat back to recline excessively and increase the risk of injury from impact forces being transferred to the child during a crash. For the Enspira 65 model specifically, this crack also exposed sharp edges which could increase the risk of injury to a child occupant, or a parent/caregiver manipulating the car seat. Correction: All registered owners will receive a letter containing instructions on how to obtain a repair kit and installation instructions.
