    Difficulty in pulling the seats belt on the second row seats when the car is turned off. Child has no wiggle room once it’s fastened and cannot undo seat belt as there’s no room to reach to unbuckle belt. I have to force the seat belt out of booster seat so belt can retract completely. The third row seats had a similar issue but didn’t have to force to out of booster seat for it to work properly.
