Duh!
Any car seat that can pass a 38mph test at 70mph should get an extra Gold
Star. Those that fail at 70 should be tested again to see if they pass at
38, where they were supposed to have been tested in the first place.
Instead of a Recall, they need another test for those that failed, and a
Strong Recommendation for the units that passed.
