So does that sound like it has them, or do they mean they need to be installed? I think it means that it has the reinforced areas but the actual anchors need to be installed.
It does have cargo hooks (which I think were made to confuse parents and encourage improper tethering).
This makes it sound like there are anchors installed.
I know, I know...call a dealer I just hate how easily the cargo hooks can be mistaken for safe tether anchorages.
Some child seat manufacturers recommend the use a top anchorage (tether) strap in addition to the lap belt. Your vehicle has tether strap anchorages behind the rear seating positions for use with these child seats. Your dealer can provide you with anchorage hardware and installation instructions.

Cargo tie down hooks are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or collision a hook could pull loose and allow the child seat to come loose. A child could be badly injured. Use only the anchors provided for child seat tethers.
