Your result

NHTSA does not require one universal car-seat expiration period. CalcSpan uses only the exact maker label or the current model-specific manual, then applies crash, recall and condition gates. Review note: Finish the label, manual and recall checks.

Read before relying

Context matters.

Replace a seat after a moderate or severe crash. Continued use after a minor crash requires every NHTSA minor-crash criterion and the manufacturer's instructions to allow it.
Check NHTSA and the manufacturer for recalls using the exact model number and manufacture date; some recalls have a remedy rather than requiring disposal.
Never infer suitability from age alone. Missing labels, unknown crash history, missing parts, damage or unavailable instructions can block safe second-hand use.
