SUMMARY:
Certain passenger vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."

Without additional and corrected owner's manual information, an owner may encounter difficulty in installing child restraints with rigid attachments in the center position.
