Agreement

  • I understand that the sole purpose of this check up form is to help reduce the incidence of improper installation and use of child safety seats. This inspection is being provided as a free service to me. I understand that the technician will provide me with best practices and accurate information but the final decision is up to me, the caregiver. I understand that the technician may not assist me in breaking California's child restraint laws. I understand that this technician cannot fully evaluate the quality, safety, or condition of my child safety seat or any component of my vehicle. This includes the seats, safety belts, LATCH and airbags. This assessment cannot guarantee my child's safety in a vehicle collision. However, I understand that a properly used child safety seat can reduce fatal injury by 71% and that it is important to read both my vehicle and safety seat instruction manuals.
