What is wrong

(Evenflo) is recalling certain Evolve 3-in-1 Combination Booster Seats, model number 34411700 manufactured February 26, 2015, to February 9, 2016 and model number 34411741 manufactured May 27, 2015, to February 9, 2016. The affected seats have a button for adjusting the harness tightness. The child in the seat can access this button and loosen the harness without the caregiver's knowledge.

If the child is able to loosen the harness, they may not be properly secured in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.

Evenflo will notify the registered owners, and will provide a remedy kit with a replacement harness adjustment button, free of charge. The recall began on September 28, 2016. Owners may contact Evenflo at www.evolve.evenflo.com or 1-800-233-5921.
