Which 360 car seat is recalled?

[CarolineAnn]

The recalled 360 car seats are specific Evenflo Gold Revolve360 Slim and Revolve360 Slim models manufactured between December 1, 2022, and December 8, 2024. The recall involves approximately 32,000 seats in the U.S. and 2,100 in Canada. The headrest energy-absorbing foam is not adequately secured, allowing a child to pick off and potentially ingest small pieces, creating a choking hazard.

This safety recall was announced by Evenflo Company, Inc. and is officially registered with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It is not a blanket recall of all Revolve360 seats. Only the “Slim” variants of the Gold Revolve360 and Revolve360 rotatable car seats produced within the specified 25-month window are affected. The core defect stems from a manufacturing issue where the foam pad may not be properly adhered.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled car seat for travel and contact Evenflo for a free repair kit. The kit includes a redesigned foam cover that securely encapsulates the foam, eliminating the ingestion risk. Until the repair is completed, Evenflo advises against using the seat, as removing the foam piece yourself could compromise the seat's safety performance in a crash.

To identify if your seat is included, locate the model name and manufacturing date. The model name “Gold Revolve360 Slim” or “Revolve360 Slim” is printed on a label on the side of the child seat shell. The manufacturing date is on a separate label, also on the seat shell, formatted as Month-Day-Year. Any seat with a manufacture date between 12/01/2022 and 12/08/2024 is subject to this recall.

You can verify your seat's status through multiple channels. Visit the official Evenflo recall website and enter your seat's model number and date code. You can also call Evenflo's dedicated recall hotline at 1-800-233-5921. For authoritative confirmation, check the NHTSA recall database using your car seat’s model number. Evenflo is directly notifying all registered owners.

As a parent who just checked our Revolve360 Slim, this recall is serious but manageable. I found the model label right on the side of the plastic shell. Our date code was within the range, so I called Evenflo right away. The process was straightforward—they verified my info and are shipping the repair kit for free. In the meantime, we’ve switched to our backup seat. Don’t ignore this; that foam piece is a real choking risk for curious little hands. Just stop using it and make the call.

Working at a baby gear store, we’re helping customers navigate this recall daily. The key is checking the specific model name and the manufacture date. Look for “Slim” in the name and a date between late 2022 and late 2024. If it matches, your next step isn't to return it to the store. You must contact Evenflo directly for their official repair kit. We’re advising parents to have their car seat’s information ready when they call or go online. The fix is simple, but using the seat before applying the repair is not worth the risk.

From a child passenger safety technician’s view, this recall addresses a clear ingestion hazard. The energy-absorbing foam is crucial for crash protection but must be inaccessible. The failure of the adhesive compromises this. The repair kit’s new cover is the proper solution. Attempting a DIY fix with tape or glue could alter the foam's performance in an accident. Always follow the manufacturer's official instructions. This situation underscores why registering your car seat with the brand is vital—it ensures you get direct notice of such issues.

I just went through the recall process myself and wanted to share how simple it was. I logged onto the Evenflo website, found the recall page, and typed in my seat’s details. It confirmed I was affected. I filled out a form for the free repair kit, which is supposed to arrive in about a week. While waiting, I’ve dug our old infant seat out of the closet for short trips. It’s an inconvenience, but safety comes first. I’ve also posted in my local moms’ group to remind others to check their seats—so many parents had no idea! Spreading the word is key.
