A Spy Baby car monitor has been urgently recalled due to a defect that can cause the adhesive pad to fail and the display screen to fall off windscreens or dashboards.

A Spy Baby car monitor has been urgently recalled by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission over safety concerns. The device is affected by a defect that can cause the adhesive pad to fail, leading to the display screen falling off windscreens or dashboards. The regulator has warned there is a 'risk of serious injury or death if the screen falls from the windscreen or dashboard and hits or distracts the driver and causes an accident'.

Instances of the pad melting or detaching have already been reported. Only units purchased between 8 September 2026 and 2 October 2026 in the new box design are affected, identified by barcode 9369900114806. Parents and carers are urged to immediately stop using the monitor and remove it from vehicles.

Replacement units and refunds are available through the Spy Baby company, which consumers are advised to contact directly.
