There are no safety or compliance issues (to our knowledge), with these recalled Pria 70 & 85 models when installed properly in the rear-facing position, using either the seatbelt or lower LATCH anchors.

It sounds ridiculous and would probably look even more ridiculous if you saw this setup with your own eyes. Imagine an oversized test dummy (the size of a 10-year old), crammed into a convertible car seat and the only thing securing it in the crash test is a simple 2-point, lap-only seatbelt.

This recall stems from the findings that this batch of Pria 85 models (approximately 83,000 units), which are rated for kids weighing up to 85 lbs., exceed the maximum head excursion limits of 813mm when compliance testing was done with the 10-year-old test dummy (ATD), and with Pria 85 installed with JUST a lap-only seat belt and no tether.
