Graco is recalling 43,994 ComfortsportTM convertible car seats, manufactured in the FrazierTM fashion from Nov. 1, 2006, through Oct. 8, 2007, to comply with FMVSS 213, Child Restraint Systems. The recall is filed under NHTSA campaign ID No. 08C009.

The company said the car seats were equipped with a large-sized, supplemental pad, or body pillow, that partially obscures the child airbag warning label located on the seat pad. This partial obscuring of the label fails to conform with requirements of Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 213, Child Restraint Systems. Serious injury could occur to restrained children should the seat be improperly placed in the vehicle.

Graco said it will notify owners and instruct them to discard the supplemental pillows, as they are provided for comfort only and do not affect the seat’s ability to protect children in the event of a crash. The recall was expected to begin this month. Car seat owners may contact Graco at 800/345-4109 or by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
