Question Help: inflatable SB and clicktight britax

JillianMarie · Jul 26, 2018

Hi. I'm switching from LATCH to seatbelt on a Britax Frontier and the clicktight doesn't want to close. The lap portion of the belt plus the shoulder portion is too thick, especially because the inflatable shoulder portion has extra fabric/thickness. Am I doing something wrong? Any tips or tricks? This is going in an outboard seat, 2nd row. I don't have a bench seat. Thanks!

Hi!

Your seat has an alternate install method when used with inflatable seatbelt. Here's Britax's page with their policy and a link to the special instructions: https://us.britax.com/service-support/inflatable-seat-belt-policy/

If you're still having trouble, call Britax for more info. Or, you can move to another seating position without inflatable seatbelts.

Try leaving a little extra slack in the belt before closing the ClickTight panel and make sure that the lower anchor connectors aren’t interfering with closing the panel. I’ve installed a Frontier in this exact vehicle multiple times and it always installs beautifully with the inflatable belt. Usually if it won’t close correctly it is due to the lower anchors poking up and blocking it from fully closing.
