Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I believe that the straps used to anchor child car seats are too long. about a week ago after my wife had put the car seat in our toyota echo, i noticed the anchor strap was hanging out of the car in front of the rear wheel. if i had not noticed, my wife would have driven off and the rear wheel would have surely pulled on the strap violently after rolling over it which could have injured my daughter. the strap is so long that i imagine that it could happen on almost any vehicle and i have a britax marathon car seat.
