How to Remove a Graco Car Seat Handle

If you’re looking to remove your Graco car seat handle, there are a few different ways to go about it. If your car has a latch system, all you need to do is release the catch and pull the handle down. If your car doesn’t have a latch system, you’ll need to use either an Allen key or a screwdriver to remove the screws that hold the handle in place. Once the screws are removed, take the handle off of the base.

Tips for Safe Removal

If you are having trouble removing your graco car seat handle, here are a few tips to help:

1. Make sure the car is in park before trying to remove the handle. If the car is in motion, the handle may become caught on the moving parts of the car and be more difficult to remove.

2. Hold onto the strap that goes around your child’s shoulder and pull straight up on the handle at the same time. Be sure not to twist or pull too hard, as this could cause damage to your child’s harness or car seat.

3. If you still have difficulty removing the handle, try spraying a little WD-40 on it and working it around with your fingers. Don’t use overly much, just enough to make it slightly sticky. Once it’s loosened up, you can then use pliers to gently remove it from the doorpost.

4. If all else fails, you can try using a screwdriver to pry out at one end of the handle while holding onto the other end with a pair of pliers. Be careful not to scratch or damage your vehicle!
