I bought two snugride classic connect 30 car seats in october of 2013. From the beginning i was having trouble with the buckles but i thought it was because the were brand new. As time went by i noticed anyone that tried to unbuckle or buckle my infants had trouble doing so, i read an article yesterday about the investigation nhtsa performed on the car seats and noticed graco refused to recall this model, after nhtsa requested it as well. Because i have this model and have trouble with it, i believe graco needs to recall this it as well, it is defective too.it would be unfortunate if graco is waiting for an accident to happen to recall all the models nhtsa investigated.

The car seat buckle on my graco snugride 30 is ridiculously hard to open.i'm afraid if there is an accident i won't be able to get my son out on time. I finally have bought another car seat because it's so hard to latch, and unlatch.i usually had to spend several minutes trying to get it undone.
I have heard about the graco car seat buckle recall on the news.when i heard graco's explanation that they think the buckle problem is caused by food, my reaction was, xxxx!my graco snugride 30's buckle was very, very, very difficult to open straight out of the box.there have been several times, i have fully depressed the red button in the middle of the buckle and thought that the restraints had released only to find that only one had released and i was yanking my poor son out while his leg was still caught by the car seat strap on one side.it never occurred to me that, in a fire or crash, i would have a hard time getting my child out of the seat, too. Thank god i have not been in a crash, but it is scary.don't let graco get away with their cover-up/lies.the problem with the buckle is an engineering/design problem. Unless their workers are eating in their factory all over the seat buckle before the car seats are boxed and shipped for sale.(even so, that also would be a reason for a recall.)shame on graco.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Family had delivered new baby at our hospital and had requested assistance with transitioning car seat, which has been used for their 14 month old, to appropriately fit their newborn baby.
