Following a series of safety checks, Mamas & Papas have identified a potential safety concern with a number of car seats that were sold through Asda, Tesco, Shop Direct and some independent retailers. They were also sold through the Mamas & Papas website and their factory stores. In the event of an accident the car seat shell may crack and therefore not provide the intended level of protection to the user.
The seats affected are Mamas & Papas Nembus, Mamas & Papas Aureus, Mamas & Papas Group 123, Mamas & Papas Altair. All are Group 123 car seats. You can identify the seat by comparing the orange label on the back with the one shown above. The approval code should match and is 04 44596. The Mamas & Papas Aureus was the only seat sold by Asda.
Mamas & Papas can assure customers that none of the affected car seats have been on sale since March 2015 and there have been no reports of any incidents involving any of the affected car seats.
If you have purchased the above seat, you should immediately stop using the product and contact Mamas & Papas Customer Services team on 03332 412154. A designated courier service will collect the car seat. You will be issued with a refund or replacement.
Alternatively, please bring your car seat into a Mamas & Papas store and our advisors will issue a refund or a suitable replacement product. Proof of purchase is not required. If you purchased your car seat from Asda, please contact Mamas & Papas
directly.
