Cosco Inc. is announcing the recall of 851 Arriva infant car seat/carriers because they were inadvertently shipped without the required airbag warning label on the seat pad. Arriva seats model 02-729-TED manufactured between March 31, 1999 and April 7, 1999 are the only ones affected by this recall. No reports of incidents or injuries have been received. Check the label on the side of the product for the manufacturing date between March 31, 1999 and April 7, 1999 and the model number 02-729-TED. If you have an 02-729-TED made during this time check the side of the pad to see if you have a warning label (upper right photo). If you have a warning label your car seat is not being recalled. If you do not have this warning label Cosco will replace the seat pad free of charge with one that has the airbag warning label. Car seats manufactured on dates other than those listed are not affected and the pads will not be replaced for free. Parents should continue using this product but it should not be used in any vehicle seat with an airbag.
