Answer from their site to a costumer with the same question: . We do have a 5-year expiration recommendation for all of our car seats and bases. Most car seat experts do recommend that you not use a car seat or base that is more than 5 years old from the manufacture date (located on a white sticker on the bottom of your car seat). The theory is that as plastic ages it becomes brittle, so it may not perform correctly in a serious crash. The harnesses and other components also wear, and the car seat may no longer meet current standards. - See more at: http://blog.pegperegousa.com/2011-collection/2011-primo-viaggio-sip-3030-faqs/#sthash.1NTih6G7.dpuf

Hi Gwen, I believe each seat has the manufactured date on the box and on the seat itself, but check with Britax to make sure.

Not really. I would say 9-10 months and up.. The car seat will not fit on it.

It converts to backless and the cup holders slide in and out. I do not know if there is an expiration date.

We have not actually discontinued the product but we are currently producing a newer model that has a different logo on it. We continued to produce this product through the end of 2014. This seat has a seven year life span.

Expiry Date on OEM Box reads: November 2014. Please refer to condition notes for further information. Hope this helps!

I have used it up & did not look at expireation date, sorry. It worked just fine, it was OEM.

Why are you looking for a "fresh" one? I am looking for the model revised to address the IIHS "Check Fit" issue. Britax Customer Service told me that the seat was revised on July 17, 2014.

Mine was only about six months old. I bought it last year, I think, and it expires in 2017.

The can I got in July 2013 has expire on July 2016 so I think the picture is old

The expiration date for all carseats, as I've heard from the stores, is 7 years. So the model we bought, Size4Me65 , will expire in autumn 2021.

We have this model and ours was manufactured in 2011 so it was part of the recall. It depends on when it was manufactured. Your car seat will have a sticker on it that tells you and you can call the company to make sure. Hope this helps

My can says 9/2016. One I bought years ago says 2015. I personally doubt its unusable after the expiration date.

For the most part each one is manufactured on a different date. You will have to check each individual car seat to know.

This model expires 6 years from date of manufacture. Mine is good til 2018.

It is important to factor in that the federal safety regulations required all the car seat companies to reduce these types of weight limits to 65 lbs (not 70 lbs). For safety reasons, not because the manufacturing necessarily changed for the weight class. Also, the newest manufacturer model is the G4, if you have the G3 I am pretty sure that means it was manufactured before December 2013. Good to know when buying a seat and looking at the shelf- life of a car seat.
