What to know

KidFit boosters, including the Zip and ClearTex versions, expire 8 years after manufacture. Boosters are not certified for aircraft use.

The date of manufacture is on the seat itself. The expiration date is printed on an adhesive manufacturer label on the underside of the car seat and, for infant seats, on the bottom of the carrier and on the base. The same label carries the date of manufacture and model number.

Safety note: SeatCheck summarizes manufacturer and NHTSA guidance, but the label on your own seat and its manual are the final word. When in doubt, contact the manufacturer with your model and serial number.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the Chicco KidFit 2-in-1 good for?
The Chicco KidFit 2-in-1 has a useful life of 8 years from its date of manufacture. The exact date is printed on the seat's own label, so check the sticker on the shell or base rather than counting from the purchase date.
Where is the expiration date on the Chicco KidFit 2-in-1?
The expiration date is printed on an adhesive manufacturer label on the underside of the car seat and, for infant seats, on the bottom of the carrier and on the base. The same label carries the date of manufacture and model number.
Should I replace the KidFit 2-in-1 after a crash?
Chicco recommends never using a car seat that has been involved in any crash, including a minor one. This is stricter than the NHTSA guideline, which permits reuse after a qualifying minor crash. Chicco's position is that a collision can cause unseen damage that compromises the seat's ability to protect your child in a second crash.
