I am not sure where to post this but its been bothering me so much lately so I have to get it out somewhere!
What do you do when you meet up with a tech to get your seat checked and they give you wrong/bad advice?
I brought my nieces snugride to be installed 2, almost 3, months ago and I have felt uneasy about it every since. The guy was nice and the seat seems very secure but something was off. First he told me I can't use the car seat without the base which I knew was completely not true. Then he proceeded to say that you can keep the handle all the way up but most people put it down (in the position even with the seat which I know is not allowed). The he said you can get baby a bigger seat and turn them at 1 and 20lbs and that some people keep them RF for a couple more months. I am sure there are other things I am forgetting.
It just all rubbed me the wrong way. I know I should have spoken up but thats just not in my nature. I am working on it though!
Oh, and he was certified. I looked him up on the website. He is a sheriffs deputy at my local sheriffs department. It really worries me that he is giving other people bad/wrong advice.
How are these situations supposed to be handled? Is it too late to do anything?
