Possible bolt issue RA55

Sorry to start another post about this, but I took a video and was wondering if someone could check it out. I'm just wondering if this amount of movement is normal, or if I should be getting a replacement seat. Thanks!

I would forward that video to Britax and let them decide. Mine was that loose but I didn't get a video of it. I called Britax and they sent a replacement seat along with a label to return my seat.

Is the car seat installed?
it looks like you are only twisting the washer not the bolt.

when you hold the bolt on the inside and the one on the outside do they spin together? or seperately?

if it is not installed it will wiggle like that because it needs room to recline.

It very well may be OK. My MA70 has similar movement (bolt is secure in its placement, but the washer spins freely) and it's fine.

I'd still contact Britax and fwd the video to them for their OK/opinion/advice/whatever. :)

I contacted Britax, pre-video, and they said movement was fine, as long is it didn't fall out. So I will forward them the video. The seat is not installed, and hasn't ever been. It came in the mail when I was on restricted movement after a surgery and I'm just getting up and about to take car of these things now. I'll check out the spinning together or separately before I call them. Thanks for checking this out for me!
