2002 Chrysler Town AND Country & 2002 Chrysler Voyager + 2 more recall: child seat
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: certain MINI vans fail to comply with requirements of FMVSS no. 225, "child restraint anchorage systems." the owner manuals supplied with these vehicles do not indicate which seating positions are equipped with tether anchorages AND child restraint anchorage systems as required by the standard.
💥 The risk
In the event of a crash, the child seat may not be properly attached increasing the risk of injury to the child.
🔧 The fix
Owners will be provided with the necessary child restraint system information. Owner notification is expected to begin october 8, 2001. Owners who do not receive the free information within a reasonable time should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
