Car seat strap question...

One of the straps on one of our car seats is looser than the other and I cant figure out why! Nothing seems twisted. If one is tight, the other is too loose. I checked the back and both loops are in. Seems like a dumb, question, I know, but has this happened to anyone. I'll probably end up taking the whole thing apart later, but wanted to see if anyone had this issue before.

Car seat strap question...

Not sure what area you're in but maybe you can take it to the Dix hills fire dept. they have a licensed technician there that can inspect it for you at no cost. It's by appointment only.

Re: Car seat strap question...

Thanks, I'll do that if I cant figure it out by dismantling. I had them installed by a place, then moved the straps up by myself so I don't think it's the installation of the seat itself. (DH brought the seats without the girls so they weren't fitted there.)

Our infant seats used to do that. DH had to fix something in the back a few times. Maybe rethread the straps? Everything looked good but they weren't even or something. I would definitely take it to get inspected or contact the car seat company.

But its every single time. Unless I'm putting them in crooked every time. Totally possible since they are usually jumping out of the seat for toys as soon as I get them in. Chat Icon
