Diono Recalls Cambria 2 Booster Seats
NHTSA Recall ID Number 21C002
Synopsis
Diono is recalling certain Cambria 2 Booster Seats model numbers 31200-US-01, 31201-US-01, and 31202-US-01. In the event of a crash, a crack between the headrest and backrest can occur, allowing the headrest to seperate. As such, these seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 213, "Child Restraint Systems." A broken or separated headrest increases the risk of injury during a crash. Diono will notify owners and will provide a replacement backrest with headrest assembly, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 31, 2021. Owners may contact Diono customer service at 1-855-463-4666 .
