I was trying to get my son fitted to the seat before installing it when I discovered the chest plate won't stay latched.

If the chest plate doesn't stay latched, then it's faulty. I would return the seat for another. I had that problem occasionally on the first Boulevard we owned, but this new model seems to have a better design and we've had no trouble.

Contact Britax. They will send you a replacement. Or you can return it to Amazon (if that is where you purchased the seat). Do NOT use the seat without the chest clip fastened. It is required to use the chest clip and it should be at nipple level or armpit level. Also if you child is rear facing, make sure the straps are at or below their shoulders. If the child is forward facing the straps should be above the shoulders. This is very important for the seat's performance in a crash.

The buckles got stuck while my daughter was buckled in. I had to cut them to get her out.

I didn't use the installation instructions because they didn't work for me. I took the top straps and threaded them under the head rests and then fastened them and the bottom straps are supposed to be threaded around the seats. Didn't work for me so I tried to thread them around the seat belts but they pulled the seat belts too tight so I am still trying to figure out how to fasten them. Tried and tried to fold it back up but I couldn't do it even with the instructions so I just leave the barrier up in my car. It isn't in the way and adds 2 extra storage places. It's worked out very well for me since my dog can't go over it and she is finally staying in the back seat!

We have the same problem. I have tried and tried to tighten the gate multiple times. All 4 sides are as tight as they will turn and still the gate does not latch. If you absolutely cAnt get it to work, I would return it. My husband threw away the box and so we couldn't.

I have th same issue. This is my only issue tho. I think as long as it doesn't slide around while my babies sit on it then I can live with resetting it. Shy of using duct tape, not sure anything can be done. I think the company should create a tighter or permanent fit.... and recall the loose ones to be exchanged for a better fit at no cost. Because the toddler seat is recessed in the Ltd there is really no reason for it to be removable.

It latches just fine. The problem I had was that it would never unlatch even after hours of trying and talking with the company trying to resolve the issue.

I had a hard time getting the harness to seat properly. I would check all the connections.

I never attempted to secure a changing pad for this dresser as the front of it crumbled as we were finishing putting it together. We immediately contacted Amazon to return the defective item and bought a genuine antique chest that dates back to 1880 that was quite a bit less money and isn't going to fall apart. I would suggest you do the same.

I Have a graco car seat and it works fine. It isn't specifically designed for any latch system, but has a safety strap to secure the seat in place.

Contact the company. I did a couple of years ago and they sent out new latches right away. Their website is www.petgearinc.com.

I had the same problem. I ended up buying another seat without any tightening bolts.

I've had the same issue. If you press down on the top plate when you push the weight selection pin in, the top plate will stay down. That will solve the issue.

There is latches in the back of the seat. You have to push them in at the same time to release the top from the bottom piece.

A wrench is needed to tighten the appropriate bolts holding the seat. Should solve the problem.
