PGPD Conducts Car Seat Check-up in Bowie

The Prince George’s County Police Department, in partnership with the Prince George’s Community Federal Credit Union, will conduct a car seat check-up on Saturday, October 13th, 2012, at the Credit Union’s Bowie location, 15201 Hall Road, Bowie.  The car seat check-up is free and open to the public.

Certified car seat technicians will be on hand to check for recalls, ensure that child passenger car seats and boosters are installed correctly, and that the harness and vehicle installation are correct for the child.  The service is free, takes about 30 minutes and involves drivers, parents and caretakers in the check-up.  The Prince George’s Community Federal Credit Union will replace the first five (5) car seats that have been recalled or are unsafe.  All car seats must be installed upon arrival at the car seat check-up site.  If possible, please bring your manufacture’s manuals for the vehicle and car seat with you.  Appointments are not necessary.
