EFTA red tabs broken?

henrietta · Feb 17, 2010

I don't see why it would be a safety issue...but has anyone had those red harness adjuster tabs on their EFTA break? I noticed today when I buckled ds in that both sides red tabs actually broke off at the spot where they are attached to the harness (where it folds inside the seat). They are still sewn/glued/attached to the harness itself, they are just in two pieces each.

Is this something I should worry about?

Thanks!

Is it the same issue as found in this post?

Even if it isn't a safety issue, you probably should call Evenflo so they have a record of the incident.

I'd contact them and request a replacement if it's less than a year old. It's a defect that would bug me and potentially bother the child if the tab is flapping loose.

I would also insist on the new style where the tab is narrower than the harness webbing.

Yep, they both look just like that.

I don't think they'll replace it--if I remember correctly, we bought it in Spring of '08....

Thanks!

I'll call Evenflo just to let them know. I can definitely see that they could be really annoying.
