Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE ADJUSTOR FOR THE TOP TETHER CRACKED IN HALF. HAD TO PAY BRITAX FOR A NEW ONE PLUS SHIPPING. THEN I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OTHERS WITH MARATHONS SERIAL: E9W0672008780 MODEL: E9W0672 BATCH: 507735 DOM: 03/10/05 I THINK THIS MAY REQUIRE A ADVISORY RECALL. IT IS NOT RIGHT TO MAKE SOMEONE PAY FOR A NEW STRAP FOR A PIECE THAT SHOULD HAVE LASTED THE FULL 6 YEAR LIFE SPAN OF THE SEAT! (RELATED VEHICLE INFORMATION: MODEL YEAR=1999, MAKE=MITSUBISHI, MODEL=LANCER). *TR
