Defect:

This is not a safety recall in accordance with federal regulation 573. however, it is deemed a product improvement campaign by the agency. the shoulder belts may not be properly located when the child is placed in the restraint. the velcro seat belt guide on these booster seats helps achieve seat belt placement in all cases.

Correction:

Downunder is providing revised instructions to all owners of kangaroo boosters to help clarify shoulder belt placement. for owners of kangaroo booster model #3 (models without the velcro shoulder belt positioner), a velcro shoulder belt positioner will be sent to upgrade these boosters.
