2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Car Seat Friendly

The Mitsubishi Outlander has been redesigned for 2014.  The IIHS Top Safety Pick + is very child friendly especially for car seats.  It now features higher-quality materials in the interior and a sleeker, sporty looking exterior.  Like the previous models it can either fit 5 passengers in two rows or seven with an optional third row.  Despite the stiff seat leather, the two sets of lower latch anchors in the second row, are actually quite easy to reach.  The forward facing convertible car seat, installed easily in the second row, and the front passenger did not have to move their seat up to accommodate the seat.  The booster seat also fit well in the second row, and the seat belt buckles are on rigid stalks, making it easier for kids to use independently.  Visit http://goo.gl/KJmGRC to see more of what cars.com loved about the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander.

5 Tips To Help You Choose the Right Car Seat!


Are you traveling with small children in your car? Are you having trouble finding the perfect car seat? We're here to help!

Budget – All car seats have to pass the same set of safety tests. Check your other needs to help you determine a budget for your next car seat.


Age & Size of your child – Check to see what seats are best for the age and size of your child. Make sure to follow the age requirements over size. Your child might need to be in a rear facing seat for longer than you though!

Determine the needs of your seat – Will the seat be moved from car to car, or will it stay put? If you need to swap cars every day, don’t purchase a seat that takes a half hour to set up.

How long will you need a seat to last? – Are you on a budget? Does this seat have to last for years? Depending on your situation, you may be able to purchase multiple seats, as your child grows, or choose one that will last a while.

Will you use it properly? – Making sure a car seat is properly installed is of the upmost importance! You need to know how to install and use your car seat properly for the safety of your child.
