Texas mom campaigns to remove Cosco booster seat model
Melanie Armstrong of Victoria, Texas, seeks removal of Cosco Explorer and Grand Explorer booster seats after her 2 year old son Christopher, weighing 33 pounds, died in a 1999 crash. Dorel Juvenile Group defends safety standards while federal guidance calls for 40 pound threshold before booster use. About 10 million units sold since 1985, noting lower cost drives popularity.
