Attorney David Shapiro Comments On Baby Trend Booster Seat Safety Recall

SARASOTA, Fla. - Jan. 19, 2017 - PRLog -- The Sarasota attorney has responded to a safety recall involving the Hybrid LX 3-in-1 Centennial booster seats, model number FB58181, manufactured on July 23, 2016, and Hybrid LX 3-in-1 Kiwi booster seats, model number FB48417, manufactured on July 14, 2016.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety administration has stated that the child safety seats failed to comply with federal safety standards because the child seats have a center adjuster rivet that may pull through or break if the harness is being used with a child weighing more than 40 lbs. Specifically the seats failed to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 213, "Child Restraint Systems."

However, even as Baby Trend moves to comply with the recall, the company is denying that the seats are defective.

Attorney M. David Shapiro of Shapiro Goldman Babboni Fernandez and Walsh had this to say about the recall, "Even in the face of a government finding, companies are reluctant to admit that their products are defective and dangerous," said M. David Shapiro, a Board Certified attorney who handles defective products.

"It really comes down to the civil justice system to effect change and eliminate harmful products. If we allow any impediment to civil actions, we are putting ourselves, and those we hold dear, in peril," commented Shapiro.
