Broken chest clip

On our way home from church I noticed the top prong of my XTSL's chest clip is broken off. It still seemed to click together ok. Do you think it's ok to use it like that for a bit, till I have time to swap out another seat?

Considering you probably have the straps tightened correctly and the chest clip is to position the straps the logical part of my brain says you're fine. The more emotional part of my brain says I'd never forgive myself if something happened to a kid so I would switch to a different seat asap

Considering the company has approved use without when a clip breaks until a replacement is sent I think you're fine. Just call to get a new one.
