Someone please tell me what the he!l PP was thinking when they made this base for the Primo Viaggio! I have never ran into this problem before in the 7 months I have used this seat, but when I dealt with it today, I can't figure out how it made it to the market like this.
I went to install the base in my husbands truck today and decided to use LATCH (I usually use the seatbelt in other people's cars because it's a lot faster). So there is a metal bar in the belt path that connects the LATCH strap to the base. It is located right by the adjustor for the LATCH strap, so when you are trying to hook up the LATCH hook you can't get enough slack to get the hook to reach into the seat bight to hook it on because the adjuster gets stopped by this dang bar. So you basically have a little bit of LATCH strap to work with on the one side and then on the other you have 75% of the belt to work with. Even after I lowered the base completely and turned it sideways I could barely hook it up. Such a stupid design flaw!
