关于CAR SEAT使用期限问题

[wjzou]

我买了一个旧的CAR SEAT,生产日期是2004年3月11号，我家孩子2010年3月5号的预产期，可是今天一个朋友告诉我5年前的Car seat现在不能用了，她说去院的时候看到了一个关于Car Seat的详细解释，我有点慌神了，那可是我和老公千辛万苦（公交来回2小时）买回来的阿，一路上我们还晕车吐的半死，这可怎么办呢， 论坛里的妈妈们，你们有买过旧的CARSEAT,被拒用的经历么？

Are Used Car Seats Safe?

Steer clear of used car seats if you cannot get an accurate history of the car seat's use. You must know a car seat's crash history to determine safety. Buy used car seats only from people you know well enough to trust their account of the car seat's crash history. Car crashes can cause hidden damage to car seats, and the car seat could fail in a second crash, putting your child at risk of injury. Check to be sure no alterations have been made to used car seats.

就这个问题刚打电话问过医院，他们说BABY CAR SEAT没有期限规定。

通常来讲，超过10年的car seat即使没有出过事故也不能用了。
我们家就有一个98年生产的，现在给来作客的猫咪当床用。
