| Action | Consignees were notified by letter dated 11/6/2008. Snug Seat sent a repair kit to their retail dealers on 11/18/2008. The kit includes a safety plate, written and video replacement instructions as well as the tools (allen wrench, crescent wrench and two nuts) necessary to make the safety update. Customers were identified using purchase order numbers, and product serial numbers to enable the dealers to identify the purchaser of the product. Due to HIPPA regulations, purchaser information was not available to Snug Seat, Inc. to contact directly. Written notification will be followed up with a telephone call to each dealer to ensure they have received the retrofit kit. Snug Seat will also insure they understand the importance of the kit and how to properly install and document receipt of the update for their customers. |
