Does the Britax UpNGo Click expire from the purchase date?

No. Britax counts the 10 years from the date of manufacture printed on the seat's label, so check the label rather than your receipt.

Can I use the Britax UpNGo Click after it expires?

Britax says to stop using it once it reaches the end of its lifespan. Plastic ages with heat and sunlight, and the seat was tested to the rules of the year it was made.

Count from the date on the label, not the purchase date.

Where to find the date on the UpNGo Click

Look for a white sticker on the plastic shell, usually on the back, the side or underneath. It lists the model number and the date of manufacture, and newer seats often print the expiration date on the same label or stamp it into the plastic.

Replacing an expired UpNGo Click

Buy new rather than used: a used seat's crash history and real age are hard to know.

When to replace a seat before it expires

After a moderate or severe crash. NHTSA lists the conditions under which a seat can stay in use after a minor one: car seat use after a crash.
When the label with the date of manufacture is missing and the maker cannot tell you the date from the serial number.
When the seat has a recall that has not been fixed. Register the seat with its maker so recall notices reach you.
When your child is past the seat's height or weight limit, whatever the date.

Before you throw an expired seat out, cut the harness straps and write EXPIRED on the shell so nobody picks it up and uses it.
