Defect:

Certain britax regent classic forward-facing only youth child restraint systems, model e9l3998, manufactured between december 18, 2006, and january 18, 2007. these child restraint systems were produced with an incorrect label sewn to the fabric cover which fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 213, child restraints systems. in place of the "warning! death or serious injury can occur" warning label, an airbag warning label was attached. the airbag warning label is not required for the regent classic restraint as it is a forward-facing only youth restraint system.
