they could have achieved the same captures without baby being unsafe ff... and she was definitely unsafe, no matter how old, as her straps were not routed correctly.
Also, that little boy was using the turbo elite on the lowest setting... he could have been easily harnessed (and should have been, so he couldn't turn around to look at his doggy)
Why not show baby rearfacing, watching the dvd player using a soft mirror??
Heck, make it a 3yr old rf in a tall seat and his/her 7yr old sibling in a booster discussing (even if you can't hear them) the movie they are able to both watch because Mommy put a safe mirror on there?
And kids can smell regardless of what direction... they took rear shots, they could have done it with baby.
SHAME on Nissan!
I am writing to comment on your new Nissan Quest commercial with the dog in the back seat. Shame on you for modeling such poor safety practices in your commercial. The dog needs to be restrained in the back of the vehicle. The infant needs to be rear-facing and have the straps properly adjusted. And the toddler needs to be in a 5-point harness (or rear facing). Even your disclaimer at the end of the commercial wrongly suggests that only children "up to" one year of age and 20 lbs should be rear-facing. Do you have any idea how much energy those of us who volunteer in Child Passenger Safety put into public awareness to try and "get the word out" about proper use of child safety restraints? Commercials like these just make the job harder. You should discontinue airing this commercial and make a new one showing proper use. Next time, consult with Safe Kids USA to get some advice on child passenger safety best practices.
I'm bored and have nothing better to do at the moment. So I wrote this to Nissan:
