What is this? A child car seat made in China may not hold a child safely. Its edges are sharp and it could let a child fall out.

What's happening? The seat’s straps and sides do not work well enough. A child could get hurt from sharp edges or a fall.

Does this affect me? If you have this child seat in Italy, your child could be in danger while riding in the car.
