Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH
What is the weight limit (child’s weight of the child
restraint) for using the LATCH anchorage system to attach the
child restraint?
65 lbs (29.5 kg)
Use the LATCH anchorage system until the combined weight
of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use the
seat belt and tether anchor instead of the LATCH system once
the combined weight is more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
Can the LATCH anchorages and the seat belt be used together
to attach a rear-facing or forward-facing child restraint?
No
Do not use the seat belt when you use the LATCH anchorage
system to attach a rear-facing or forward-facing child
restraint.
Booster seats may be attached to the LATCH anchorages if
allowed by the booster seat manufacturer. See your booster
seat owner’s manual for more information.
Can a child seat be installed in the center position using the
inner LATCH lower anchorages from the outboard seating
positions?
N/A – Regular / Crew Split
Rear Bench
No – Crew Full Rear Bench
Regular Cab Front/Full Bench Rear Seat: Use the seat belt
and tether anchor to install a child seat in the center seating
position.
Split Bench Rear Seat: Use the supplied center lower
anchorages to install a child restraint in the center position.
Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower
LATCH anchorage?
No
Never “share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child
restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated
LATCH lower anchorages, use the seat belt to install a child
seat in the center position next to a child seat using the
LATCH anchorages in an outboard position.
Can the rear-facing child restraint touch the back of the front
passenger seat?
Yes
The child seat may touch the back of the front passenger
seat if the child restraint manufacturer also allows contact.
See your child restraint owner’s manual for more information.
Can the rear head restraints be removed? Yes
The head restraints can be removed in every rear seating
position if they interfere with the installation of the child
restraint
