    I'm pretty sure the recall isn't the maxi cosi mico 2011 model ones only 2009/2010 models? I may be wrong tho. They just stopped stocking them here and releasing a new model in julyish (or just released maybe?), called Titan.

    melbel is 100% spot on. I actually managed to track down the GM of maxi cosi today and he was brilliant on the phone.

    The current maxi cosi mico was recalled about 3 weeks ago due to the tether strap issue. He stressed to me today, it's not a safety issue, but a design fault - eg the capsule doesn't do what it was designed to do - get in and out of the car easily without completely undoing the tether strap.

    Currently, they are redesigning them, then they will need to be retested and manufactured before they are available again. And at this stage he was honest and said they had no idea when that would be. It may be 6 months or it may be longer

    So there is no maxi cosi capsule available to buy in australia on the market currently. Unless you can find a second hand one somewhere.....

    Frustrating they can't even say when the new model will be released
