Baby Car Seat Carrier Safety Belts pose risk of serious injury to infants

Health Canada is warning Canadians about the dangers of Baby Car Seat Carrier Safety Belts and is urging consumers not to buy the product.

If the product has been purchased, consumers should immediately stop using the product and dispose of it, according to the organization.

Based on marketplace investigations, the Baby Car Seat Carrier Safety Belts are not believed to be available in retail stores in Canada, but can be purchased online through DinoDirect.com.

According to Health Canada, the Baby Car Seat Carrier Safety Belts do not contain Transport Canada‘s National Safety Mark and therefore have not been certified to meet the safety requirements of the Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations (RSSR). Under Canada’s Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA), Health Canada prohibits or restricts the advertising, sale and importation of hazardous products in Canada.

What Health Canada is doing:

Health Canada has contacted DinoDirect.com and requested an immediate stop sale and distribution of the item, but the company has not yet responded. Health Canada is also working with the Canada Border Services Agency to prevent importation of these products.
