Replacing LATCH System
Parts After a Crash

{

CAUTION

A crash can damage the LATCH
system in the vehicle. A damaged
LATCH system may not properly
secure the child restraint, resulting
in serious injury or even death in
a crash. To help make sure the
LATCH system is working
properly after a crash, see your
dealer/retailer to have the system
inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as
possible.

If the vehicle has the LATCH
system and it was being used
during a crash, new LATCH system
parts may be needed.

New parts and repairs may be
necessary even if the LATCH
system was not being used at the
time of the crash.
