Frontier 85 harness adjuster stuck

Our Frontier 85's harness strap keeps getting stuck. I've taken it off and it seems everything is on track. but if we loosen it and tighten it seems it tightens to a certain point then stops, and it's darn near impossible to get any tighter. Anyone else have problems? What can I do? It's usually just before it's tight enough and DH has to jerk it a few times forcefully to move a little.

Have you checked for debris in/around the adjuster lock? Cheerios show up in the mysterious of places! If there is nothing in the cam-lock, I would call Britax. Their customer service is second-to-none. They will have a fix for you!

And in the mean time, what about getting it set and then not adjusting it? I don't adjust mine every time we get in and out, only when I move him up, or a slight loosening for winter coats (usually done in fall with a sweater or light jacket). But I know that's not what everyone does.

I'd call Britax asap! They should be able to help you trouble shoot on the phone with them.

I agree that I'd want to temporarily get it tight enough and leave it, just for safety. But there's no way I'd be okay with that in the long term. Like many people, I find it so much easier to loosen the straps to get them in and out. But for the moment, I'd do what I needed to make sure it was safe. Good luck!
