what exactly “expires” in children’s car seats?

342 views

To me it just looks like plastic, cloth and some foam padding, all synthetic materials that don’t seem to decay as quickly as the manufacturers suggest. So what expires? Are the expiry dates just a scam? How can I tell if it’s “expired”? Is it really that unsafe to use after expiry? What happens to all the unsold ones left on the shelf?

I always assumed the plastics are the main concern since UV light and heat can cause plastics to become brittle over time.
