About 447,000 Dorel baby car seat carriers are being recalled after dozens of reports of the child-restraint handle coming loose.

There have been at least three injuries to babies, including bumps, bruises and a head injury. Dorel Juvenile Group Inc., of Columbus, Ind., has received 77 reports of the child-restraint handle fully or partially coming off the products.

The recall involves Safety 1st-, Cosco-, Eddie Bauer- and Disney-branded carriers with certain model numbers. They were sold nationwide at department and specialty stores from January 2008 through this month.

The recall was announced today by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Dorel Juvenile Group.
