NHTSA complaint #10936823, filed 2016-12, 100,000 miles“The keyfit 30 base does not stay secured to the backseat. The lock appears sprung per the installer's opinion. This is the third time I've had them out to tighten the base and finally resorting to use a locking clip. This is highly dangerous and I can provide pictures if requested.”
