AND
No passengers were injured;

Airbags did not deploy;
AND
There is no visible damage to the car seat.
If the crash your car seat was involved in meets
ALL
the criteria,
you may not need to replace the car seat.
If one or more of these criteria are not true or if you are uncertain
of any of your answers, replace the car seat immediately.
