Child Seat Tether Attachment: Description and Operation
Child Safety Seat Tether Anchors
WARNING: The child safety seat tether anchor/bolt MUST be securely tightened to specification. Otherwise, the child safety seat may not
be correctly secured and the child could be injured if the vehicle is involved in a collision or stops suddenly.
Child safety seat tether anchors, located in the package tray, have been provided at all 3 rear seating positions. If a child safety seat was in use during a
collision, inspect the tether anchor and all surrounding sheet metal for damage. Install a new tether anchor if necessary. Rework or install new sheet
metal to restore the vehicle to its original condition and structural integrity.
Lower Anchors And Tethers For Children (LATCH)
The lower anchors and tethers for children (LATCH) system is a standardized and uniform attachment system for installing child safety seats in
passenger vehicles. LATCH-equipped child safety seats have 2 lower attachments that connect to the vehicle portion of the LATCH system.
The vehicle portion of the system consists of 2 attachment points (6 mm wires) bolted to the floor pan at both second row outboard seating positions.
The attachment points protrude from the biteline between the seat cushion and seat backrest.
If a child safety seat was in use during a collision, inspect the vehicle portion of the system for damage. If any of the attachment points (6 mm wires)
are damaged, a new one must be installed. See the appropriate removal and installation procedure for service.
