Over 50,000 Evenflo REO Child Car Seats Sold in the US and Canada Recalled for Headrest Issue - See the Models
The company says no injuries have been reported, and owners will receive notice after Aug. 17 while a permanent remedy is still being developed.
A federal recall now covers 59,661 Evenflo Reo by Revolve360 child car seats due to a headrest safety defect, prompting parents and caregivers to verify their specific model number.
