Chaperone Infant car seats by Britax have been recalled due to laceration and choking hazards. Britax has received four reports of the chest clip breaking. Injuries from three reports included minor lacerations and scratches to arms and a finger. Due to its small size it also poses a choking hazard.

Car seats with the product numbers E9L95P2 (Red Mill), E9L95P3, E9L95P5 (Cowmooflage) and E9L69N9 (Moonstone) were sold from June 2009 to October 2010 for about $230.
