The LATCH anchors for child seat
installation are located at the rear
section of the second row seat
between the cushion and seatback.
The LATCH anchors are below the
locator symbols on the seat back on
6 and 7 passenger vehicles. The 5
passenger vehicle does not require
the symbol, however, the anchor
itself is located in the same area.
Follow the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions to properly install a
child seat with LATCH attachments.
Follow the instructions on attaching child safety seats with tether straps.
Refer to Attaching child safety seats with tether straps later in this
chapter.
Attach LATCH lower attachments of the child seat only to the anchors
shown.
Plastic LATCH guides can be obtained from an authorized dealer. They
snap onto the LATCH lower anchors in the seat to help attach a child
seat with rigid attachments. The guides hold the seat trim away to
expose the anchor and make it easier to attach some child seats.
WARNING: Never attach two child safety seats to the same
anchor. In a crash, one anchor may not be strong enough to hold
two child safety seat attachments and may break, causing serious
injury or death.
