"UPDATE: As of July 2, 2014, Graco has expanded this recall to include an additional 1.9 million rear-facing infant seats with a faulty buckle. Please visit gracobucklerecall.com to see if a car seat you own is affected.  Safety is paramount here at Good Housekeeping, and of utmost importance is the safety of your children. Yesterday, Graco announced it is voluntarily recalling nearly 3.7 million child car seats spanning 11 different models due to possible entrapment issues that can arise. While the restraint capabilities of the car seats are not in question, faulty buckle latches may make it difficult to unbuckle the child. This means, in the event of an emergency, you may not be able to quickly remove a child from the car. Graco is offering improved harness buckles to customers at no cost, and they have conceded that &amp;quot;food and dried liquids that can make some harness buckles progressively more difficult to open over time or become stuck in the latched position.&amp;quot; Consumer complaints echo this issue, with individuals reporting that they have been unable to unlatch the buckle and have had to resort to cutting the harness straps, fully loosening the harness straps to maneuver their child out, or removing the car seat from the vehicle with the child still in it and getting additional help. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is continuing to investigate seven other models of Graco car seats, all infant car seats [see update above], but currently Graco has only recalled 11 of the 18 in question. In the meantime, NHTSA has requested that Graco revise statements that are downplaying the seriousness in public forums. If you have any toddler convertible car seat or harnessed booster seat child car seats made by Graco from 2009 to 2013, you should contact Graco immediately at 800-345-4109 or customerservices@gracobaby.com to get repair kits and information.
