“I own a 2004 Dodge Dakota quad cab. The problem is there is not enough height for my oldest son's car seat to fit correctly and also the seat belts will not tighten up enough to make the seat sit tightly. My youngest son's car seat is wedged behind the passenger seat because there is not enough space for it to sit and the seat belts won't tighten up on it either.”
