For SuperCrew vehicles, the tether anchors
are anchor brackets behind the seat on the
rear edge of the seat cushion.
For SuperCab vehicles, the tether anchors
in your vehicle are loops of webbing above
the seat backrest.
The rear seat in the SuperCab has two
straps along the top of the seat backrest
that function as both routing loops for the
tether straps and anchor loops.
The tether strap anchors in your vehicle
are in the following positions (shown from
top view):
SuperCrew
E274697
SuperCab
E278365
E277518
For SuperCab vehicles without rear seats,
use either of the two passenger side rear
rigid anchors on the back panel as a top
tether for the front passenger seat.
Attach the tether strap only to the
appropriate tether anchor as shown. The
tether strap may not work properly if
attached somewhere other than the
correct tether anchor.
If you install a child restraint with rigid
LATCH attachments, do not tighten the
tether strap enough to lift the child
restraint off the vehicle seat cushion when
the child is seated in it. Keep the tether
strap just snug without lifting the front of
the child restraint. Keeping the child
restraint just touching the vehicle seat
gives the best protection in a severe crash.
Once you have installed the child restraint
using either the seatbelt, the lower anchors
of the LATCH system, or both, you can
attach the top tether strap.
Front Seat Tether Strap
Attachment (SuperCab)
If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly, the
child restraint may not be retained properly
in the event of a crash.
If the child restraint is not anchored
properly, the risk of a child being injured in
a crash greatly increases.
If your child restraint system has a tether
strap, and the child restraint manufacturer
recommends its use, we also recommend
its use.
