US investigating baby seat recall
.jpg)
In affected car seats the buckles can become stuck, making them difficult to open. The recall was issued in July and includes car seats manufactured between July 2010 and May 2013.
There have been no reported injuries related to the recalled baby carriers.
Still, NHTSA says the problem could create "an unreasonable risk to a child's life in the event of an emergency."
Graco could not immediately be reached for comment.
