Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren (LATCH)
Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is
equipped with the child restraint anchorage system
called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and
Tether for CHildren. Two LATCH child restraint anchor-
age systems are installed on all second-row seats. Second-
row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in
the rear surface of the seatback. In addition, all
3-passenger bench seats are equipped with a child re-
straint tether anchor at the center seating position.
