Child Seat / Latch Strap
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Baby Trend, Inc. (Baby Trend) is recalling certain Hybrid 3-in-1 Combination Booster Seat-Desert Blue child seats.

As such, these child seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 213, "Child Restraint Systems," and 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
A child seat that fails to properly restrain a child increases the risk of injury in a crash.
