Is it normal to have some back and forth movement of the car seat when snapped into the base?

If there is, it's very slight. We had trouble installing it at first until we felt the bar between the back of the seat and the seat where the baby seat gets connected. Perhaps the baby seat didn't get attached to that bar. Your local fire department can help as well. Good luck!

We had zero movement, I would call Britax, they have amazing customer support.

I have only seen this issue when the back part is not raised high enough.... we simply went a click higher (kids head still in the top center) and the issue was resolved. it's about how high the belt feeder is in relation to the belt egress on the car. we also check it everytime.... I love the seat and it works great!

Just normal to turn, etc. I did not notice anything abnormal that I remember. The doll is with my granddaughter now. Her hair is a mess though.

The base is part of the unit. It is not like the baby car seat with a separate base. Very nice and installs quickly and securely.

No, it may be that the arm that hangs out to the right is not in or out all the way. It's used to raise and lower the seat height, but if you move it right and left it locks and unlocks the ability to lean back in the chair. I've got mine locked a lot of the time, but sometimes it pops itself out and I slip back into a leaning position. When that happens, it makes that sound. Otherwise, the only sound I hear is of the leatherlike creaking.

no, only infant car seats do that, this is a convertible car seat and stays in the car as a whole unit.

I have not had that problem. Push in until it snaps. I had to push a little harder than I originally thought.

Yes, it does, but I doubt that there is a car seat in which this does not happen to some degree. I sometimes tuck in a blanket or a stuffed toy on the side of my kid's head and that helps to prop it up.

That is not normal. Mine stays tightly latched to the back while not in use. I can hear it "click" when I push it back in.

I remember thinking it seemed inconvenient at first, fortunately now ours is front facing (meaning no more rebound bar in use) so it's not a problem... I agree that it is placed awkwardly though & made it more difficult while using it rear facing. Once I got a feel for it though, it was easier... It is definitely more difficult than it was on our Chicco key fit which we were using prior. I agree with others that I resorted to trying not to adjust it - but would also state that I shouldn't have to do that, other car seats it's easy to adjust as you please....this issue has been my only lil complaint about this car seat...only consolation is, it does resolve itself when you flip it around...

Yes, the car seat is way easier to move back and forth between cars than a regular car seat.

Hi, it is normal for it to wiggle for slightly. If the fitment is too tight, it would be hard to remove and re-insert. It should fit tight enough so that it won't slide around though.

The base does not detach, so you have to move the whole thing. It's fairly easy to move, especially if you have a newer vehicle with the built in car seat anchors.

Ours had no issues at all. We called the manufacture of the car seat and asked what model base matched our seat specifically.

Hello! The answer is Not. The base has his own belts and this are short, even you can use the car's sitbelt but only as back-facing. Regards

There's a release button on the sides of the carseat where it attaches to the adaptor that you press before lifting it. It is a similar mechanism as the one for the base.

Does anyone have the same problem as in this video, where the seat rocks back and forth? _https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2ZFzP0czM0
