Crew Cab Models and Extended Cab
Models with Rear Seats
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-46. See Top Strap
on page 1-42 if the child restraint has one.
There is no top strap anchor in the right front
passenger's position. Do not secure a child seat in this
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. See Top Strap on page 1-42 if the child
restraint has one.

Your vehicle has a right front passenger airbag. Never
put a rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger's seat. Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's airbag inflates. This is because the
back of the rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag. Always secure
a rear-facing child restraint in a rear seat.
A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing
child restraint. If you need to secure a forward-facing
child restraint in the right front seat position, see Where
to Put the Restraint on page 1-40.
