We just purchased a 2011 Nissan Rogue (admittedly without doing much research), and I'm having trouble with a Frontier (not frontier85) installation. My son was away while we bought the car, so I didn't attempt the install until right before he came back. He's 5 1/2, 45 lbs and about 45" tall. This is the first time I'm installing without LATCH, and I couldn't get a good install with the seat belt (short belt path - the seat belt isn't long enough to try to the long belt path...). The seat is positioned outboard - I have a Chicco Keyfit30 on the other side.
I really love the frontier over any other seat, but it moves way too much from side to side (To use for 2 days, just used LATCH and it's rock-solid). At this point, I am looking at other seats listed on Nissan's snugkids site (http://www.nissanusa.com/snugkids/), but I'm not loving the idea of purchasing something different. I feel like I shouldn't be using LATCH anymore because of his weight, so I really need to figure something out...whether it's fixing my seat belt install or (sigh) going with something else.
Any suggestions? Any successful Rogue/Frontier installs? I'm really bummed that I may have to stop using the Frontier.
