RECALL – 31,080 CYBEX Aton Infant Car Seats Due To Fraying Webbing Strap

Columbus Trading-Partners USA, Inc. (CTP), in partnership with NHSTA, is recalling certain Cybex models Aton, Aton Q, Aton M, Aton 2, and Cloud Q rear-facing infant seats.  The design of the webbing for the central seat belt adjuster allows it to fray, which can reduce the strength of the seat belt. As such, these infant seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 213, “Child Restraint Systems” and 209, “Seatbelt Assemblies.”
