The clips attaching the padding on the car seats may break or be pulled off which could present a small parts choking hazard to young children. The seats involved are Dial-A-Fit, Perfect Fit, and Rock 'n' Ride. Approximately 1.5 million car seats were sold nationwide for $45.00 to $75.00 each. Consumers having Dial-A-Fit or Perfect Fit seats should call Kolcraft to obtain new clips and instructions for proper replacement for the side upholstery assembly.
