Can I purchase replacement parts for my Toddler Car Seat?Just a little background information, in 2019, Orbit Baby re-launched under new ownership and brought the Orbit Baby G5 Travel Systems to market. All pre-2019 Orbit Baby products, including the G2 and G3 Travel Systems, were manufactured and sold by the previous parent brand of Orbit Baby.
We are making exciting changes to the Toddler Car Seat and expect the G5 model to launch in the near future. At that time, we will also release replacement parts for the G5 Toddler Car Seat. If a G5 replacement part is compatible with previous-generation models, we will absolutely note this on our website.

How do I clean the Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat?The Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat upholstery can be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Washing inside a pillowcase and in a frontloading washer is recommended. DO NOT USE BLEACH.
Lay the upholstery flat to dry. Do not machine dry. Machine drying may cause extensive shrinkage and result in the upholstery not fitting the car seat properly.
