My t9p of mid-range baby car seats that I BOUGHT (ie. No subscription) come with a replacement agreement that each accident the seat is involved in above a certain threshold, they will replace the car seat for free as they are not safe to operate again after a crash -would need to check the manual in the car for deets, obviously not for a fender bender.

As many times as accidents could happen in the life time of the car seat, probably 8 years or so. For free. Which I think it's smart as it gives them great pr in general, and it helps keeping their brand out of the news in case of a damaged item gets involved in a second crash and someone gets hurt.

I am sure they factored the cost of replacements into the seat price based on statistics, to me it tells you don't need to be a soulless piece of shit to make a good and reliable business model without being a dick.
