Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am a registered cps technician, #t9852. i attempted to install a century smartmove 44709svr seat, manufacture date 6/6/01 into a vehicle. base does not lock seat into a 45 degree angle in the rear facing position, the angle determination is on the base, not the seat, and cannot give indication of proper seat alignment since it checks the base angle and not the seat angle (which doesn't lock). the belt path for rear facing is on the seat, not the base, proper tension to hold the seat may force it from a 45 degree angle when tightened.
