Car Seat Retailers Giving Poor Advice and Failing to Fit Seats Correctly

Undercover research by British consumer group Which? has found that parents seeking advice on car seats are being failed by retailers giving out misleading information and installing seats incorrectly. Babies “R” Us scored worst in the exercise. In seven visits by researchers to the store, the reporters said the seat was fitted correctly only once. Errors included misrouted and twisted seatbelts, both of which could compromise a child’s safety.
