Summary (from the official notice)

Recaro Child Safety LLC (Recaro) is recalling certain Recaro ProSport model 385 child restraints, manufactured from June 16, 2010, through January 31, 2013. When the affected child seats are installed with the LATCH lower anchors only (without the top tether), the child's head can move excessively, increasing the risk of injury. As such, these seats fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, "Child Restraint Systems."

Hazard and remedy text is shown word for word from the official notice.

Register your car seat with the manufacturer so they can contact you if it is recalled. See our car seat registration guide for label tips and brand links.
