At a check event tonight, a fellow tech was helping a parent install a seat. They buckled the seat belt, pulled on the shoulder harness to tighten and the buckle came up out of the bite of seat. The webbing had completely detached!
Moved the seat to the outboard position. Same thing! :jaw:
Parent stated the car came from Enterprise, but "Car Facts" came back okay.
The webbing kinda looked like a Britax "rip stop" - the grey stitching was GONE. What was left was some pink/red threads or nubs.
Good News: it was an install for an unborn AND the car had LATCH (Not exactly a late model vehicle).
Suggested that parents to take it to the dealer AND report it to NHSTA on their website.
