The ACCC is investigating the safety of aftermarket children’s car seat head straps and baby bottle self-feeding devices, after the Assistant Treasurer issued Safety Warning Notices for each of the products.
Car parts suppliers and retailers Repco, Supercheap Auto and Innovative Mechatronics Group (IMG), an automotive electrical parts supplier, have each paid penalties after the competition watchdog ACCC issued them with infringement notices for supplying aftermarket car key remotes that allegedly breached warning requirements for products powered by button batteries.
