“When installing a child safety seat in the rear seat the lap belts do not hold tight. I have contacted various dealers as well as Ford in michigan, and all that was said to use is a locking clip,that does not hold that type of belt tight. We are also installing the tether system in our own vehicle as the dealerships locally have never done them and want too much money to experiment on tyring to install one. We will have an infant and a 3 year old in the rear seat and we want them to be in corrctly but no one has ony answers.”
