Safety Notices

Only the serial numbers listed below are affected.

Out of an abundance of caution, Diono has elected to voluntarily conduct a recall on the affected seats. All affected seats will be remedied at no charge to the owner. Diono will ship a replacement backrest / headrest to all owners at Diono’s expense. Replacement headrests are now available in New Zealand for affected owners, these have been shipped to owners that have already registered with us.

Safety Statement:

Diono is a leading designer and manufacturer of convertible car seats and other juvenile products. We are committed to improving safety for babies and young children. As the result of our rigorous quality control and ongoing product testing, we have established that certain car seats installed in a certain configuration result in a technical non-compliance and related safety concern.

Affected Car Seats:

If you have a Radian RXT, Radian R100, Radian R120, Rainier, Olympia, or Pacifica convertible car seat that was manufactured between November 25, 2013 through September 01, 2017, you may be affected by this voluntary recall. Any other model or manufacture date is NOT affected by this voluntary recall.

Remedy:

If you have an affected car seat, you should immediately contact our dedicated Customer Care team at this toll-free number 0800 34 66 66 for a Remedy Kit. The Remedy Kit includes a lap belt cushion for use in lap belt only installations, a new warning label, a replacement chest clip, and an instructional addendum.

Description of the safety risk:

If the convertible car seat is installed with only the lap belt, the child has an increased risk of a chest injury in the event of a crash.

If the convertible seat is installed with only the lap belt, the child weighs over 65 pounds, and the tether is not used, the child has an increased risk of head injury in the event of a crash.

There have been no reported injuries or deaths associated with these configurations.

Safety Statement

Diono is a leading designer and manufacturer of convertible car seats and other juvenile products. We are committed to improving safety for babies and young children traveling in cars. As the result of our rigorous quality control and ongoing product testing, we have established that if our convertible car seats are installed forward-facing in vehicles with lap belt ONLY (Type 1) without the top tether attached, it crosses into technical non-compliance. You may be affected by this voluntary recall.

To help determine if you are affected by this recall, please answer the following questions:

Was your convertible car seat manufactured before November 25, 2013?

If the answer is YES, you are NOT affected by this voluntary recall.

If the answer is NO, you may be affected by this voluntary recall.

All registered owners will receive a recall letter in the mail followed by a new warning label, replacement chest clip, and instructional addendum that will be sent separately beginning December 4, 2017.

Diono has always encouraged top tether use in all forward-facing modes. If you need to install the seat using lap belt only without top tether, you will need a Remedy Kit. This Remedy Kit will include a lap belt cushion for use in lap belt only installations, a new warning label, a replacement chest clip and an instructional addendum.

Description of the safety risk:

1. Forward-facing occupants under 65 pounds using the 5-point harness and vehicle lap belt only (without top tether attached) are at increased risk of chest injury.

2. Forward-facing occupants over 65 pounds, using the 5-point harness (without top tether attached) are at increased risk of head injury.

There have been no reported injuries or deaths associated with this configuration.
