Top Strap Anchor Location
Your vehicle has top strap anchors for the rear seating
positions. The anchors are located on the floor in the rear
cargo area of your vehicle. Do not use the rear tie-down
brackets near the liftgate for top strap tethers.
Do not secure a child restraint in the right front
passenger’s position if a national or local law requires
that the top strap be anchored, or if the instructions that
come with the child restraint say that the top strap
must be anchored. There is no place to anchor the top
strap in this position.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH)
Your vehicle has the LATCH system. There are anchors
in the outside seating positions in the second row.
This system, designed to make installation of child
restraints easier, does not use the vehicle’s safety belts.
Instead, it uses vehicle anchors and child restraint
attachments to secure the restraints. Some restraints
also use another vehicle anchor to secure a top
tether strap.
