A voluntary recall for over 324,000 Evenflo car seats was initiated on Tuesday, Sept. 30 after the company discovered material from the headrests could result in a "choking hazard."

According to a report posted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, pieces of foam found in the headrests of certain Gold Revolve360 Slim and Revolve360 Slim car seats are not "adequately secured away from the child," which can increase the risk of injury. All of the affected models were sold across the U.S. and Canada.

"When a child seated in certain Revolve360 Slim models can reach behind the cushion, pick, and dislodge the foam from the headrest, it could pose a potential choking hazard if placed in the child’s mouth," a notice from the Boston-based company reads. "The foam itself is non-toxic."

Evenflo Company, Inc. reported it had no knowledge of any incidents resulting in injury "at this time."

"This issue does not affect the safety or integrity of the car seat in the event of a crash," Evenflo said. Evenflo did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment.

Here's what to know, including what to do you if you have the affected product.

Evenflo voluntary recall: Impacted items, model numbers

Certain models of Evenflo Gold Revolve360 Slim and Evenflo Revolve360 Slim are impacted by Evenflo's voluntary recall, which was initiated on Tuesday, Sept. 30.

A more detailed breakdown of the affected products, from model number to manufacturing date can be found below:

  • Affected products: EVENFLO GOLD REVOLVE360 SLIM 9999 and EVENFLO REVOLVE360 SLIM 9999 child seats
  • Model number: 3681
  • Manufactured date: Between Dec. 1, 2022 and Dec. 8, 2024

According to Evenflo, customers can verify the model number on the product label located on the back of the car seat shell.

To access the back of the car seat shell, rotate the car seat to a side-facing position, and you will find the white label with the date of manufacture and model number on the instruction manual storage location.

Revolve360 or Revolve360 Extend models, or new Revolve360 Slim with model numbers beginning CS2601 or 3682 were not impacted by Evenflo's voluntary recall.

What to do if your Evenflo car seat was affected

Evenflo, who is working to "address the issue quickly and responsibly," will mail owners of all affected products (for whom the company has contact information for) free recall repair kits, including easy-to-use instructions and protective materials to block access to the foam.

"Families may continue to use their car seats safely if the foam remains intact and out of reach," Evenflo said.

According to the NHTSA and Evenflo, notification letters are expected to be mailed by Friday, Oct. 31 and recall repair kits will be shipped in early November. Visit Evenflo's website to register your car seat or confirm your information.

Evenflo customers based in the U.S. may contact the company's ParentLink Consumer Care team by phone at 1-800-233-5921 or via email at parentlink@evenflo.com Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET with any additional questions or concerns.
