Yeah, it's the Radian. We're using it in my car now with our Wizard loaned out.
Think I should mention it to them? It's such a stupid thing. People don't even notice for the most part. IF they read the label they just gloss over it, knowing already what it says. I'd hate to make SK spend millions of dollars over fixing it. But I know labels and manuals are golden. We wouldn't want kids to have an INUURY.

That's a classic Jay Leno headline misprint! I would contact them, my goodness they put on strollers/swings/infant seats etc. not to tie a string around babies neck 
shouldn't most people know this? Also on strollers in the warnings it says not to put hot drinks in child trays and consoles, you'd think it would be self explanitory on the child tray!
Also could it be a law suit if someone failed to follow these instructions and come back and say "it didn't say it could cause injury" because of a misprint?

OH MY GOSH!!!
I am an English teacher and usually catch errors such as that one. Wow. It is amazing that label made it though the entire production process without someone noticing such a glaring error. Wow.
I try not to get upset about grammatical, spelling, and conventional errors, but I often do cringe when I see such errors. Although we all occasionally make mistakes, it never ceases to amaze me how many adults truly seem to be unable to use correct grammar. The errors I see most often are:
their/there/they're
to/too/two
alot/a lot
irregardless/regardless
already/all ready
its/it's
accept/except
like/as
good/well
kind of/sort of/somewhat/rather
neither/nor and either/or
outside of/outside
should of/would of/could of
I am definitely guilty of making mistakes, so I don't mean to sound almighty. I am just pointing out some of the mistakes I see often.

I see alot of those to. What should of you done? Sometimes their are just to many errors.
LOL Sorry. My mom is a stickler for grammar and spelling (though she can't hear spelling errors). She would stop us constantly while we were speaking and correct us if we made an error ("David and me went to the store." "David and me?" "David and *I*."). Now she lets me know if my blog or Piper's site have errors on them. She's the only one in the family without some amount of dyslexia, and she's a professor, so she's the dedicated proofreader. LOL

you know what is really sad? My sister's marathon has a misprint that forward facing where it should be rearfacing on the sticker on the side. When she comes back through town tomorrow Ill look to see where exactly it was but I laughed! and then wondered if it had been recalled or something and that is why she got it for 199(it was foofy and this was about 1.5y ago so it wasnt because it was discontinued).
shoot I even right like that sometimes. When I have been writing for TOO long Ill spell tihs wrong. Or I will write 'with the' as 'withe'. And then I never notice because we self correct ourselves as we read.

irregardless/regardless
Oh how I loathe the word irregardless. I've this irrational hatred of it.
And the thing is...as you'll notice in my posts, my grammar isn't perfect. It's just THAT word, drives me crazy.
(So does the word "monies". Dunno why. But "dunno"? totally doesn't bother me).
Also, Wendy? Tell them! lol I'd love to hear the response. lol

"Error on Radian label
I have a Radian that I purchased last November, model #10600, DOM 10/05.
The label right on the seat is incorrect, there is a misspelling. I
don't know if this has been fixed on newer seats, but I wanted to bring
it to your attention. The airbag label, right behind the child's back,
says "Death or Serious Inuury" rather than "Death or Serious Injury." I
took a picture of it. http://www.baz.com/wendy/radianlabel2.jpg
Thank you. We've loved the seat in the year we've had it. Absolutely
fabulous.

This reminds me of something funny--I have a HP wide-format printer (I'm a graphic designer and had to get it for when I was in school). Anyway, there's a little dialog box that pops up when it's low on ink to tell you such. I finally read the warning one day and to my surprise, it read something like this:
"Your HP print cartridge is almost out of ink. HP recommends replacing the cartridge when print quality is no longer unacceptable."
This made me laugh, as I haven't been all to thrilled with the print quality from this printer as well as the quality of the unit itself.

In formal writing, my grammar is usually correct. However, in informal writing, such as on the internet, I make numerous mistakes due to writing too quickly and not editing my work. I am honest with my students about that, as well. I often make mistakes in speech and in informal writing. They know I am not perfect!!
What irritates me is when adults seem unable to use correct grammar. While we all make mistakes, I am worried about adults who truly do not know the difference between some homophones and other words/phrases of common English usage.
I agree with you about "irregardless."
I find it SO irritating when people use that word!! IT IS NOT A WORD!!!

There's a restaurant in downtown Raleigh called the Irregardless Cafe. hehehe It would drive you guys insane (I've heard the name enough now that it doesn't bother me). It's what I think of when I heard irregardless.
