  "title": "Replacing a booster car seat after a crash",
  "question": "Does a booster car seat need to be replaced after it has been involved in a car crash?",
  "answer": "The checked facts do not say whether a booster car seat must be replaced after a crash. The closest related fact is about age, not crashes. WAYB Pico: The maker's help center says all Picos have a useful life of 7 years from the date of manufacture or recertification, but the Pico instruction manual says not to use the seat after 6 years from the date of manufacture, so the sources disagree. Cybex Solution G2 has crash-test results only, which do not address replacement: Independent crash testing produced better-than-average results, with head (HIC) and chest sensor readings well below the group average; BabyGearLab scores it 7.5/10 on crash testing and 75/100 overall, while another review reports 7.1/10 and 74/100, so the sources disagree.",
