GRACO TURN2ME

Other/I am not sure

When installed via the seatbelt the car seat comes loose within a week of install and is able to rock at the base and tip over. This problem did not occur with the use of the lower anchors. The seat is installed correctly and there is no movement at the base upon install but it quickly loosens up after time and becomes unsafe. I have reinstalled it multiple times in two different cars with the same issue. This appears to be a known issue with this car seat as well as many others have reported the same issue.

When used with a seat belt installation rear facing, it becomes loose over time. The belt path lock off is not working properly and this is a common problem I have seen all over the internet. It is not safe. It was installed correctly and tight before a drive and the whole car seat will turn to the side by time the ride was over.

I am experiencing problems with the rear-facing installation using latch. I cannot get it tight enough. I met with a Certified Passenger Child Safety Technician who said installation with the latch system alone is not safe. The seatbelt must be routed through to get a tight and safe installation. When the seatbelt is routed through, I cannot use the rotating feature that is advertised for this car seat. I am concerned it is being used unsafely by many other families. I would like this car seat to be investigated and potentially recalled. The CPCST felt that it should be recalled.

When rear facing, the car seat has become loose, regardless of whether it’s anchored or secured using the seatbelt. My kiddo is under the weight limit to move front facing. We have to re-secure the car seat at least once a week because it becomes loose so frequently.

Using the seat belt with the safe lock feature for rear facing, the car seat becomes loose within 2-3 times using it with my daughter. We have to have her out, undo the safe lock and pull the seat belt tight again to refasten it.

I own two Graco Turn2Me convertible car seats that are installed rear facing. My seats are not in warranty with the manufacturer any more as they were purchased more than 1 year ago. My children are both under 35 pounds and within the height/weight range for rearfacing in this seat. When I was driving without the children in the car, I had to stop short and I heard a slapping sound. I realized it was one of the car seats hitting up against the back seat. When i checked the car seat after stopping, I saw that the seat was quite loose, moving more than 1 inch at base. It was moving several inches at base and when I turned the seat to the side, it tipped over significantly at the base. The second seat was also loose, but less so. Both seats were installed with the LATCH. Hoping to get a tighter install, I reinstalled both seats, following the manual, with the vehicle belt only. Five days after reinstalling both seats with the belt, I go to get a child into the seat and when I turn his seat toward the door, I notice it is very loose again, shifting at least 3 inches at the base. I began my research and have found others who have experienced this problem. I fear these seats have a major safety hazard when being used with both latch and belt in rear facing mode. They are loosening on their own, even after proper and tight install, over short periods of time. Perhaps the rotation feature is loosening click-tight feature that holds the latch/seatbelt. I do not feel these can be safely used, at least not rear facing.
