  • Families Received a Child #safety Check at Move for Kids at Soldier Field

CHICAGO, June 14, 2022#hyundai Motor America and Ann & Robert H. #luriechildrenshospitalofchicago hosted a car seat #safety check #event at the 10th annual Move for Kids 5K walk and rally in Chicago. The #event was part of its previously announced #partnership with the Lurie Children's Hospital in support of its Buckle Up Child Passenger #safety Program (CPS).

An estimated 46 percent of car seats and booster seats are installed incorrectly or improperly used, according to NHTSA’s Child Restraints Usage Study.

During the #event, nationally certified child passenger #safety technicians (CPST) inspected car seats for expiration, manufacturer recalls, and/or proper fit of the seat for children. Hyundai’s corporate social responsibility initiative, #hyundaihope, and its employee resource group, Women@Hyundai, donated $10,000 and 2,100 infant diapers to the infant supply drive during the Move for Kids #event.

“Correct installation of car seats combined with proper education of parents, caregivers and children are critical to the #safety of our youngest passengers,” said #brianlatouf, chief #safety officer, #hyundai Motor North America. “Hyundai continues to offer technologies and systems that help protect those on the road. We are grateful to host car seat check events like this one to continue to support child passenger #safety efforts with leading partners like Lurie Children’s Hospital.”
