Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I have a 2009 Volkswagen Routan. The third row is a bench seat, which has latch compatibility in one place. The owner's manual states that a child safety seat (booster or infant seat) can be installed using the latch system in the center seat of the third row. When a booster seat or an infant seat are, in fact, installed in this third row, the child is actually positioned in between the outboard seat and the center seat, due to the position of the latch bars , and the child's head is in between the center and outboard headrest, and is not protected by either headrest. …”
