Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161004-E04CF-2147412359. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Britax B-FREE STROLLER U741900. Source model text: Affinity. Incident: I was pushing my 1 year old daughter (24 lbs) in a store on 10/02/16 when she reached from her Britax Affinity stroller for something to the left in front of her. Despite checking that both sides of the the seat were indeed inserted properly when I placed her in seat, the right side of the seat came out of the adapter site and the seat and my daughter nearly fell. I snapped it back in, thinking it just didn't snap securely the first time. We finished our shopping trip and my older daughter leaned on the foot rest briefly, again causing the seat to come loose. At that point, I became very concerned and put my daughter into the car. I snapped the seat back in again, but as I loaded the stroller into the car, the seat again came off. The engagement of the seat seems loose and unsafe for use. I feel my daughter could fall if we continue use of this stroller. The stroller is the Britax Affinity purchased in 2014.
