MAXI-COSI ISSUES RECALL OF FAMILYFIX BASE
Published:  10 March, 2010

Dorel is voluntarily recalling all Maxi-Cosi FAMILYFIX bases sold before 4 March 2010.

The recall concerns a potential problem in the mechanical attachment of the IsoFix connectors to the base. As a result, the base does not offer the child the desired level of protection in case of an accident. The problem, identified during a routine internal quality check, affects a small percentage of the total production. There have been no complaints or report of incidents.

Maxi-Cosi’s first priority is, as always, making products that help keep children safe. Therefore, owners are advised to stop using their FamilyFix base and contact Maxi-Cosi Customer Care on 01842 763281. No proof of purchase is necessary.

This advice is relevant only for the FamilyFix base, which can be recognised by the product name “FamilyFix”on the side of the product. It does not affect the EasyFix, EasyBase or any other product sold under the Maxi-Cosi brand name. While awaiting the FamilyFix check, parents can continue to use the Maxi-Cosi Pebble or CabrioFix infant seat with a regular seat belt.

For more information, parents are welcome to contact Maxi-Cosi Customer Care on 01842 763281. Further information can also be found on www.maxi-cosi.com

"Dorel sincerely regrets any inconvenience that this voluntary recall may cause and is committed to consistently delivering all of our products according to the highest quality standards. We take the trust that consumers place in our brands most seriously," said a spokesperson.
