Evenflo Announces
Voluntary Safety Recall of Discovery Infant Car Seat and Provides
Supplemental Fastener to Enhance Safety Performance

VANDALIA, Ohio – February 1, 2008 – Evenflo today announced it is
implementing a voluntary safety recall of its Discovery Infant Car Seat
Models 390, 391, 534, 552. Approximately one million units were
produced beginning April 2005. This is based on recent laboratory tests
conducted by Evenflo and the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration, which show that this car seat could potentially become
separated from its base in high impact side collisions similar to those
in the tests. As a precautionary measure, Evenflo is providing current
owners of these models with a free supplemental dual-hook fastener that
has proven that the seat remains attached to the base in the event of
such collisions. Additionally, Evenflo is taking steps to develop
future models of Discovery with enhanced safety performance. These new
Discovery models will be available to consumers starting in the second
quarter, 2008.

“We are parents, too, and protecting children is our core
mission at Evenflo. While our current Discovery car seat models have
performed well to protect infants in actual side impact automobile
collisions without any reports of serious injury or death since they
were introduced, we want to take further steps to protect the safety of
children who use our products,” said Rob Matteucci, CEO of Evenflo.
“These lab tests do show there is potential for the base to detach from
the seat in high impact side collisions, so we are recommending that
all Discovery owners use the supplemental dual-hook fastener, available
free from Evenflo.”

To order the supplemental dual-hook fastener, Discovery 390,
391, 534, 552 model owners should call Evenflo at 1-800-356-2229
between 8 AM and 5 PM EST or visit www.evenflo.com/Discovery.
No shipping costs will be incurred and orders will arrive in
approximately 3 to 4 weeks. In the meantime, consumers should continue
to use their Discovery infant car seat and there is no need to return
it to retailers.
