Every seat sold in retail must meet federal safety standards. Always mail the registration card. This ensures you receive recall alerts. Expiration: Check the sticker on the side. Materials degrade over 6–10 years. History: Never buy a used seat. Hidden cracks from past accidents are dangerous.

Look for straps at the shoulders, hips, and crotch. 📏 Step 3: Check Vehicle Fit Not every seat fits in every car. Measure your backseat: Ensure there is enough legroom.

Select a seat based on your child's current height and weight. Best for newborns. Portable with a carry handle. Includes a stay-in-car base. Convertible: Grows with the child. Starts rear-facing, then flips forward. Bulkier; not portable like infant seats. All-in-One: Lasts from birth to booster age. Heavy and takes up more space. Booster: For children who outgrow harnesses. Positions the car’s seat belt correctly. 🛡️ Step 2: Safety Checklist
