Re: Car Seat Problems in XC- Argh! Help.. V70-XC70 1998

I called Volvo about this also. They get several calls a week. They have now answers. All the seats that fit have been recalled or are no longer in production. The new seats have that big base.

I have removed the adjuster piece from the base as it is not needed in our car. This allows the base to sit over the buckle on the passenger side. I considered cutting a notch the plastic to allow the belt to be used in that seat. I am worried that this will weaker the seat base and have not done it. The only good news is that the forward facing seats do not have this problem. We are 9 month away from getting to that stage.

Lots of cars are having this problem. We checked an A4 this afternoon and it covers all buckles in the rear. The seat fit great in our 240 :-(.
