COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – Certified car seat technicians will host a free Car Seat Check Up Event this Saturday, May 30, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Heritage Park, located at 1776 Heritage Drive.
Organized by Car Seats In South Central Michigan and MI Gentle Start Doula Services, the event aims to tackle a startling statistic, three out of four car seats are currently used or installed incorrectly.
Technicians will be on-site to help families properly secure their seats before summer break, ensure children are in legally compliant seats following Michigan’s April 2025 law updates, and distribute free replacement seats to qualifying children.
No appointments are required for this community safety initiative, though organizers note that registration may shut down early if there is overwhelming attendance.
To participate, children must be present in a motor vehicle, though expectant mothers within one month of their due date are also welcome to attend.
Families of all ages are encouraged to stop by to ensure their setups are safe, legal, and ready for seasonal travel.
