Consumer Description

The second row car seat is moving freely and not locking to the base. It had my child car seat installed. The tesla service team told the only fix is to replace the whole seat. The design does not have any backup latch to lock the seat. It’s a serious safety concern since the seat could just move out of lock while driving esp when a car seat is installed. I read this has happened to multiple cars online.
