How to Get New Straps for a Graco Car Seat

Car seat straps are safest when clean and free of damage.

Most parents know the challenge of keeping a car-seat both clean and functional. Car seats hold valuable cargo and keep children safe. Car seat straps are an important part of the product and can become dirty or damaged. The cost of a new car seat is not warranted when the straps alone are an issue. While most car seats have removable straps that can be washed, there are times when a replacement is a better option like when the straps are lost or the straps become damaged. Fortunately, buying replacement straps are easy.

Instructions

1. Locate the model number and serial number or manufacturer date on the car seat. This information is needed to determine the compatibility of the replacement straps. This information can be found on the back of the car seat, located on the little white ID label, or may be found online searching for the model on retailer websites.

2. Go to Graco's online store at gracobaby.com. Locate the option for "Replacement Parts" and select it. At time of publication, this is located on the bottom left of the page.

3. Input the requested information, the model number and serial number or manufactured date. Click the search button. This produces a list of replacement parts and their availability. Choose the replacement straps needed and purchase the item.

4. Call Graco directly if you have trouble finding the replacement part on their website or have questions. Graco can be reached at [phone], Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. eastern time.

5. Search for replacement parts sold by online retailers. Several retailers sell replacement Graco parts such as harness ties, buckle tongs, seat-belt locking clips and buckle straps. Compare prices to get the best deal.
