FamilyFix Slide Pro base (Ref. 8065057110) recalled: green connection indicator can show while seat is only partially attached
The UK Trading Standards recall (PSD 2605-0109) confirms the FamilyFix Slide Pro base, item ref 8065057110, made 6 Sep 2025–24 Mar 2026, is recalled because the green indicator can show while the seat is only partially connected.
What to check. If you own this base, check the serial number against Maxi-Cosi's recall page. Affected bases are replaced free of charge; until the replacement arrives, do not rely on the green indicator alone — verify the seat clicks in at both front and back on every installation.

German forum thread (citing ADAC): indicator can stay green when the base has not clicked in, seat could move in a crash
This finding came from the seed query 'Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix Slide Pro Rückruf Sicherheit' (German forum thread citing ADAC).
What to check. A consumer forum thread citing ADAC describes the practical failure: if the seat is not fully released and then re-placed, the base may not click in but the indicator stays green, so the seat is not firmly locked and could move through the vehicle in a crash. The author urges affected owners to act quickly.
