Warranty

In the event of a collision…

Your child’s car seat should always be replaced, if you have been involved in a collision. Why, for a seat to be ‘approved’ it is crash tested once, not multiple times. There may be no visible sign of damage, but it may have been weakened. As there is no way of confirming this, don’t take an unnecessary risk. We recommend that you replace your seat.

Car seat manufacturers offer different advice surrounding seat replacement. If your child is in the seat, and or, if there is any damage at all to your car, regardless of speed, replace the seat.

Maxi Cosi offers replacement services after you’ve been involved in a collision, and you can find more information regarding this in our Warranties section below.

You should always check your car insurance. Don’t assume the full value of the seat will be reimbursed. Many car insurance policies cover a fraction of the price you may have paid. Some will not pay out at all. Check with your insurer, to see what cover they offer.
