"Consider what happens to a plastic toy if it is left outside for some time. The plastic becomes brittle and can develop cracks when stressed. Car seats are subjected to extreme heat and extreme cold while sitting in your vehicle, so the plastics eventually react just like that toy left in the sun."

Also: "The shoulder straps, waist straps, adjustment straps and attachment/installation straps are so complex that only specially trained factory workers can ever hope to install them properly. We have determined that after a set amount of time, at least one catastrophic All-Orifices Episode will have taken place which forces owners to remove all hardware for (futile) laundering. It is after this Episode that we are certain the seat no longer can be expected to perform adequately in any way."
