I don&#8217;t know of any that do.  My car seat was recalled &#038; the &#8220;fix&#8221; was ridiculous &#8211; it took my carrier style seat that pops in &#038; out &#038; made it completely stationary &#038; there was no option for refund.  All those crib recalls now &#8211; their fix is to make it so the rail won&#8217;t drop at all on the side (which is a BIG deal for short people because it can mean NOT being able to put a sleeping baby over the rail&#8230;) and again no refund available.  They are not required to refund or exchange if they can make a fix of basically ANY kind to make it safe for use, even if it makes it less functional.<\/p>\n<p>I wish it were different.  It stinks when you get stuck with something that doesn&#8217;t operate the way it is supposed to, especially if it disables a feature that was KEY to why you bought it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Give your answer to this question below!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Public Citizen Question by ctlm1024: can i get my money back for an infant product on recall instead of repairing it? baby car seats, cribs, playpens Best answer: Answer by JBGenerally no.
