After experiencing what might be a major mechanical problem with our Land Rover, we might be shopping for a new (used but new to us) car. Can someone please tell me about the latch and tether placements for the following cars:

2010 or newer Ford Expedition
2010 or newer Toyota Sequoia
2010 or newer Chevy Tahoe

Thank you!

My LATCH manual is 2009, so assuming there are no changes from 09-10:

Expedition:
2nd Row - 3 sets of LATCH for the bench seat, or 2 sets of LATCH & tether anchors for the captain's chairs. Tether anchors are at the bottom of the seat back.
3rd Row - One tether anchor in the center seat back, no LATCH

Sequoia:
2nd Row - 3 sets of LATCH, tether anchors on back of seat
3rd Row - One tether anchor on back of center seat, no LATCH

Tahoe:
2nd Row Bench seat- LATCH in the center and passenger side only. Driver's side does have a tether anchor. All are on the bottom of the seat.
2nd Row Captain's chairs- Both haveLATCH and tether at the bottom of the seatback.
3rd row 2 seat model - no LATCH, one tether anchor that can be used for either seat on bottom rear of seat.
3rd row 3 seat model - no LATCH, one tether anchor on the driver's side that can be used for either center or driver's outboard.


Hope that helps!

Does that cover '06 Sequoias, too? My friend has an '06 and she only has two complete sets of LATCH in the 2nd row - center and driver's side outboard. I can't recall if there's a passenger side tether anchor or not. The 3rd row has one complete set (outboard) and another outboard tether anchor.

Nope, for 05-07 the LATCH manual says:

2nd row bench seat: Center LATCH, Driver's LATCH, Passenger tether anchor only.
2nd row seperate seats: 2 complete LATCH

3rd row: Passenger side LATCH, driver's side tether anchor, nothing in the center.
