ELFE JUVENILE PRODUCTS issued a recall on multiple vehicle models

Graco SnugRide infant car seats, manufactured between August 31, 1999, and February 28, 2002. 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 additional "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. Graco will notify its customers and provide a replacement seat or base free of charge. Owner notification is expected to begin March 19, 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Graco Century at 1-800-345-4109.
