My manager at BRU is due in two weeks, so she took her new Snugride(Darius print, OMG cute) to a local hospital that was having a clinic. She got some volunteer who decided her seat was easy. She has an 03 Jetta. The tech in charge was telling the guy to stop and wait, but he just said it was really easy with LATCH. Ok, yeah, it is, but she wanted it in the middle and I was certain LATCH was not ok in the middle. She didn't have her car manual, so I could not verify. Anyway, this "volunteer" flat REFUSED to put it in the middle because LATCH was better. WTH? Then, he didn't bother to put the foot down and he put the handle in the WRONG position(C on the Snugride) and told her the only position she could not put it in was 'A'. ARGHHHH! Plus, he just put it in and never showed her how to do it. I helped her reinstall it. She helped me as well as a woman 38weeks pg could. I used the locking clip because the shoulder belt was tilting the base. I showed her which positions to put the handle in and I made sure it was properly reclined. I am confident she could do it herself, if it wasn't 90degrees!
Anyway, I had heard horror stories, but I hadn't heard about one in my own state! It hits home when it's someone you know.
She was so upset and worried. I felt bad for her, but we got it installed perfectly for her.
Just wanted to share my frustration!
