From Pikeville Police Department:

P͓̽U͓̽B͓̽L͓̽I͓̽C͓̽ S͓̽A͓̽F͓̽E͓̽T͓̽Y͓̽ A͓̽N͓̽N͓̽O͓̽U͓̽N͓̽C͓̽E͓̽M͓̽E͓̽N͓̽T͓̽:͓̽ C͓̽H͓̽I͓̽L͓̽D͓̽ C͓̽A͓̽R͓̽ S͓̽E͓̽A͓̽T͓̽ W͓̽A͓̽R͓̽N͓̽I͓̽N͓̽G͓̽
Parents, please do not purchase car seats from Shein, TEMU, or similar discount sites. These seats do not meet U.S. federal safety standards and have not passed required crash testing. In a crash, these seats can fail catastrophically, putting your child’s life at serious risk.

Your child’s safety is too important to trust to an unsafe product. Only buy car seats from trusted brands that meet FMVSS 213 safety standards in the United States.

Not sure what is safe? Contact a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) for guidance on safe options to keep your child secure on the road.

Your child’s safety is worth it.
