Another carseat question w/ my car...

Okay, so I decided to change from the Chicco Key Fit 30 to the Gracco Snugride b/c it's less bulky and I like the snap and go rather than bringing the whole travel system everytime.

Anyway, I have the Infinit EX and went to call them and they don't have the Gracco Snugride listed as one of their carseats they recommend with this car. I guess their engineers never tested it out or anything. Does that mean it doesn't go with the car?

You do not have to check with the car manufacturer. They do not test seats nor are seats tested with specific cars.

The Graco SnugRide is just as safe as the Chicco. So if you were told something by a car dealership, they are not correct.

I have the Gracco Snugride 32 and the officer that installed it for us said that was one of the easiest to install and the safest according to crash tests. Made us happyChat Icon
