Consumer Description

WHEN INSTALLING THE INFANT SEAT, HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SEAT BEING STATIONARY. IT SEEMS THAT THE SEAT BELT ANCHORS, AR WIDER THEN THE CARSEAT, THEREFORE, A LOT OF SLIDING FROM RIGHT TO LEFT TAKES PLACE, UNLESS I USE BLANKETS TO WEDGE BETWEEN THE CARSEAT AND SEATBELT. I ALSO HAVE LEATHER SEATS. IF I PULL THE SEAT BELT TIGHTER, THEN THE BABY IS LEANING TOO FAR FORWARD TOWARDS BACK OF SEAT AND BALL INDICATOR OF CARSEAT IS NOT IN ITS CORRECT POSTION
