To keep your child as safe as possible, Dorel Juvenile Group
strongly recommends replacing the car seat even after a minor
crash; even if it was not occupied at the time.
Replacement After a Minor Crash
The National Highway Traffi c Safety Administration states that for a
crash to be considered minor ALL of the following must be true:

Vehicle door nearest the car seat was not damaged; AND
No passengers were injured; AND
Airbags did not deploy; AND
There is no visible damage to the car seat.
If the crash your car seat was involved in meets ALL the criteria,
you may not need to replace the car seat.
If one or more of these criteria are not true or if you are uncertain
of any of your answers, replace the car seat immediately.
