Was Vehicle Towed: -	Description of the Complaints: My child has easily been able to unbuckle the strap from the chest clip of her evenflo discovery infant car seat from the time she was 3 months old. the seat was purchased in november 2003 from target. when contacted, evenflo said it had not heard this complaint and had no explanation for me. i believe other babies could be doing the same thing. several times i went to get my daughter out of her seat and her strap was loosened and unclipped from the chest clip. because it is rear facing, i could not see her unbuckle the strap. i think this seat needs to be recalled immediately so that the company can come up with a way to secure the strap.*ak
