I took my radians out of the car today to swap covers, and noticed a few problems on one.

My radian 65 has what looks like corrosion on all the metal parts on the back of the seat.

And a pic of the seats with their new clothes :love: Even though one of them is not in use right now.

Look at the fading on my princess cover compared to the all floral!! I am almost afraid to use the all floral. :whistle:

Also, I have no clue what caused the fading on the pink of my princess. Any clue?

lso, I got the wider tongs (that is what sunshine kids call them, right?) and when I was taking off the old tongs, I noticed the stitching on one shoulder strap was coming loose in the middle.

The last one has the tag that was on the strap in it.

I am going to send these pics to SK as well, but just wanted opinions.

Oh wow that does look like corrosion on the metal. Any drinks been spilled? Kids pee in the seats?

Drinks are spilled from time to time, but nothing major. Kamille has been riding in it, no accidents, I cant tighten the top tether of lower anchors at all, the tightening parts are FULL of corrosion. All my other seats are fine.

I have never seen metal do that before.

The Radians are steel right ? Steel should not do that.

It the 'tong the end of the tether or what goes on the harness adjustment ?

The tong is the buckle and buckles into the crotch strap

It is reminding me of corrosion on a battery. The white everywhere is powder coming out of all the crevices. It smells just like battery corrosion too

I can't really see the pics clearly. Try pressing the little flower button on your camera and taking the pics again. SK might want to see the pics, anyway.
