Child Safety Seat Registration

NHTSA is encouraging everyone to register their child restraint systems with the appropriate manufacturer. NHTSA's website states:

In the event of a safety recall all manufacturers are required to notify all registered owners by first class mail that their child restraint is included in the recall. Therefore, it is very important that the manufacturer of your child restraint has your current mailing address, and all of the information necessary to identify your child restraint. To register your child restraint you will need to provide the following information:

• Your Name
• Your current mailing address
• Manufacturer's Name (Example: Graco, Britax, Evenflo, Combi, etc.)
• Date of Manufacture (Example: Label says "Manufactured in" )
• Model Number (Example: 8643CDR2, 808688, 317147P1, etc.)
• Model Name (if known) (Example: Snugride, Centre EX, Embrace, etc.)

All manufacturers are required to include the model number and date of manufacture on each restraint they produce. It can be found on a label attached to the restraint (look on the rear, the bottom, or the side of the restraint). The images below are samples of what a label may look like. Please note that the label on your child restraint may look different from these sample labels.

Information regarding specific manufacturers and how to register can be found here.
