Agh! So, somewhere else, someone is arguing with me you need to reinstall your seat every month. I said I check the install each time I put j in. She claims with stopping and going it loosens it. I say not w a proper instal, and you should check each time anyhow. I've never had a seat loosen, unless it was installed badly. Help me end this!!

You don't need to install every month. But if it makes her nor comfortable there is nothing wrong with it. Your correct that a proper install won't loosen over time. How ever in some cases, like my Radian, it sinks into the seat and reclines more.

I've also had a carseat compress the vehicle seat more over time, so it seemed looser. It wasn't loosening, it was just because of the additional compression.

But, if an instal isn't loose...no sense in taking it out and possibly going thru hell again? Lol, right? I mean do I need to put it in my calendar on dec 12 to reinstall my seat?

Absolutely no need to reinstall unless it NEEDS to be reinstalled. Checking to make sure it's always tight is a good idea, though.

:scratcheshead: Well there's certainly nothing wrong with checking your install to make sure it's still tight, but yeah, absolutely no need to reinstall after any time period.

I didn't think so. Now the other person claims its in their manual to do so. ??? I asked what seat, I've been down this road before ....I won't get an answer.
