description: OUR INFANT SON (4 WEEKS OLD) WAS RESTING IN HIS EDDIE BAUER INFANT CAR SEAT. THE HANDLE WAS IN THE UPWARD POSITION. WHEN I PICKED THE SEAT UP TO MOVE IT A MATTER OF A COUPLE FEET THE HANDLE HAD NOT LOCKED AND THE SEAT BOTTOM FELL COMPLETELY DOWNWARD, DUMPING MY SON ON THE TILE FLOOR. HE WAS LEFT WITH A BRUISED FOREHEAD. MY WIFE ALERTED ME THAT THIS SAME SITUATION HAD HAPPENED TO HER A FEW DAYS PRIOR, BUT THE BABY WAS BUCKLED IN THE CAR SEAT AT THE TIME, LEAVING HIM HANGING FROM THE BELTS. IN OTHER INFANT CAR SEATS I HAVE OWNED (THIS IS MY 4TH CHILD) ONE OF THEM BEING AN EDDIE BAUER CAR SEAT, THE HANDLES OF THE CAR SEATS HAD SAFETY FEATURES THAT INCLUDED A CATCH LOCK ON THE HANDLE, AND MULTIPLE LOCKS. THIS PARTICULAR MODEL HAS ONLY ONE LOCK, OF WHICH IT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY ALL THE TIME AND TWICE HAS RESULTED IN UNFAVORABLE SITUATIONS FOR MY INFANT SON. AFTER REVIEWING THE NHTSA WEBSITE FOR FILING THIS COMPLAINT, THE MODEL NUMBER IS NOT ON THE LIST TO CHOOSE FROM, SO I AM ADDING IT TO THIS DESCRIPTION SECTION. IT IS THE DELUXE 3 IN ONE MODEL WITH NUMBER 22-627 MTT WITH A MANUFACTURING DATE OF 7/16/07 GBIB. *TR UPDATED 01/03/08. *LJ
