I missed the memo where Tesla removed LATCH booster and car seat attachments in the 3rd row of the model X. Before receiving our refreshed model X, we had rented an older model X to make sure it had everything we needed - that one had LATCH, but it has since been quietly removed from production vehicles.
Our current issue is with booster seats. I called the booster seat company (Chicco) and they said that LATCH is only needed when a child is *not* using the seat, to keep it from becoming a projectile during an accident. When a child is buckled into the booster seat using the seatbelt, everything is safe and ok. They suggested that we buckle up the empty car seat to keep things safe, but it is not practice for us to reliably remember to do multiple times a day, shuttling the kids around.
Does anyone have a solution to strapping in the booster seat into the 3rd row to keep it from becoming a projectile when a child is not in it, like LATCH would have provided?
