    Car seats expire so manufacturers can sell you new ones.

    Basically the warranty expired. Its not like the carseat is made from milk. Doesnt mean it doesnt work. Doesnt mean it is not damaged.

    Don't understand why they can't make baby seats to last when regular seat belts can last for decades.

  • @reyy717

    I don’t get why they don’t make car seats last a long time since they are so damn expensive

    The biggest "Justified" BS ever. Manufacturers make parents with fears buy these seats to make their millions and after a while discard these and let the landfills grow to the Moon. The worst is our Government doesn't care enough to really go after these money suckers.
