Purchasing a used car seat is fine…only if you know its full crash history. This means that you must buy the car seat from someone you know, not from a garage sale, thrift store or online sites. If a car seat has been in a crash, is expired or broken, it must be replaced.

  • Free car seats are available if eligibility requirements are met.
