2024 Recall: Britax One4Life Slim
Britax One4Life Slim
NHTSA Recall ID Number : 22C002
The Issue
A few models of the Britax One4Life Slim, model numbers E1D197A, E1D197B, E1D197F, and E1D17G, include a label that lists an incorrect rear facing weight limit of 40 pounds when the seat is installed with lower anchors. The correct weight limit is 35 pounds. If your child weighs more than 35 pounds and your One4Life Slim is installed rear facing, please install this seat using the vehicle seat belt.
The seats impacted by this recall were made between July, 10, 2024 – July 12, 2024.
The Remedy
The remedy for this recall is an updated label that will be sent to all registered owners in mid December, 2024. Owners who haven’t registered their seat can contact Britax directly by calling 1-833-474-7016.
