Replacing LATCH System

Parts After a Crash

{
WARNING
A crash can damage the LATCH
system in the vehicle. A damaged
LATCH system may not properly
secure the child restraint, resulting
in serious injury or even death in a
crash. To help make sure the
LATCH system is working properly
after a crash, see your
dealer/retailer to have the system
inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as
possible.
If the vehicle has the LATCH system
and it was being used during a crash,
new LATCH system parts may be
needed.
New parts and repairs may be
necessary even if the LATCH system
was not being used at the time of the
crash.

Securing Child Restraints

(Front Seat)

This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat
is a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See
Where to Put the Restraint (with
Airbag Off Switch) on page 2-46.
There is a switch on the instrument
panel that you can use to turn off the
right front passenger frontal airbag.
See Airbag On-Off Switch on
page 2-35 for more information,
including important safety
information.
