Rear Facing Convertible Seat question

We just bought the Graco Comfort Sport and installed it rear facing in my Honda Odyssey using LATCH. The seat is VERY tight at bottom, but back of carseat still moves toward back of car, is this safe?

Perfectly normal! You should only check for movement at the belt path--1" or less is acceptable. All rear-facing seats that aren't tethered (Britax seats are the only rf seats allowed to be tethered) will flip toward the back of the vehicle. This is called rebound.
