CAR SEAT USE AFTER A COLLISION
UNITED STATES
The U.S. National Highway Traffi c Safety Administration
(NHTSA) recommends that car seats be replaced
following a MODERATE or SEVERE collision in order to
ensure a continued high level of collision protection for
child passengers.
Car seats do not automatically need to be replaced
following a MINOR collision. NHTSA defi nes a MINOR
collision as ALL of the following:
• The vehicle was able to be driven away from the
collision site; AND
• The vehicle door nearest the car seat was not
damaged; AND
• No vehicle occupants were injured; AND
• There is no visible damage to the car seat; AND
• The air bags (if present) did not deploy.
NEVER use a car seat that has been involved in a
MODERATE or SEVERE collision.
