Infant car seats by Peg Perego, the Primo Viaggo SIP, manufactured from July 1/07 to March 14/08, have been recalled in the US. See more information on the US NHTSA site.
I don't know if this will affect similar models in Canada, but remember that we have different regulations for car seats here and you should not be using a model purchased in the US. See this link for more information on car seats in BC.
Basically car seats - for either infants or children - must meet the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. To meet this standard, the seat must be purchased in Canada. For this reason it is also not recommended to buy pre-owned car seats, as you never know where it was purchased or if it is accident-free.

I love the look of this peg perego car seat and it’s very comfortable for my son but it’s also very hard to adjust the straps, almost impossible.
