Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The vehicle restraints in the rear seat of the 1998 oldsmobile achieva are not cooperative with child restraint systems. the seat belt latch is located too far forward on the bottom portion of the seat not allowing a secure fit with child restraints. it would be nice if a latch retrofit kit was available for this vehicle so you could just bypass the vehicle restraints all together.
