“We purchased a 2006 Chrysler Town And Country mini-van. The van is equipped with stow and go seating. On the third row seats, located on the end of each seat, left and right, is a pull tab. When my 6 year old son pulled the tab the seat ejects forward. The force created a lump on his head. The tab is easy to access and easy for a child to pull. When the tab is pulled the upper part of seat moves forward fast and with force. I believe this is a safety concern for children and even adult. Especially, if you aren't expecting the movement of the seat.”
