Seats and Restraints

Regular and Extended Cab

without Rear Seats

For regular and extended cab
models without rear seats, there is a
top tether anchor located behind a
removable cover on the back wall
behind the right front passenger
seat. You may have to pull the
seatback forward to access the
anchor.

Do not secure a child restraint in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be attached, or if

the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top tether
must be attached.

According to accident statistics,
children and infants are safer when
properly restrained in a child
restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating
position. See Where to Put the
Restraint on page 3‑48
for
additional information.

Attaching more than one child
restraint to a single anchor could
cause the anchor or attachment
to come loose or even break
during a crash. A child or others
could be injured. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injuries
during a crash, attach only one
child restraint per anchor.
