Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My daughter and i were on our way to go pick up my husband. well she was making this nasal noise and i dismissed it at first. then i just got this horrible feeling and i tried to look back. i couldn't see over the seat. well then i stuck my hand back there to feel her head. i did not feel her head. i was so scared. i pulled over into this building complex and her left side of the car seat belt completely loosened. she was hanging forward and she was choking on the other side of the belt! i was absolutely horrified. it happened once before but not to that extent. i thought perhaps my husband or i accidently loosened it. well, this convinced me that it was indeed the seat. i fixed the belt put her off to the left side so i could see her. after we got my husband i rode in the back with her and we went to babies told them what happened. apparently, this isn't the first time this has been a problem with their car seats. beware mothers! evenflo sometimes has seriously defective straps. *ak
