2005 Toyota SEQUOIA Child Seat Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	818303
Internal NHTSA #	10357069
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	SEQUOIA
Model Year	2005
File date	21/09/10
Component	CHILD SEAT
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Screw holding toggle mechanism for latch straps in sunshine kids monterey booster pulled away from base, causing toggle mechanism to recede into the booster body- making it virtually impossible to remove seat from vehicle. (neither "sunshine kids" nor "monterey" is listed on the "restraint type" box in the next page). I am a cpst as well as a firefighter and paramedic. This particular seat restrains the child with the vehicle's lap and shoulder belt, as it is a belt-positioning booster. However, this seat also has a latch system to secure the seat to the vehicle so that the seat itself does not become a projectile if not buckled into the vehicle when not in use. I have marked answers to following questions to reflect that the seat was installed with latch, but do understand how this seat is designed to be used (securing child with lap and shoulder belt), and have always used it 100% correctly. The child in question is 9 years old and 58 pounds. (related vehicle information: model year=2005, make=toyota, model=sequoia).
