Where to Put the Restraint (Crew Cab Pickup) Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat. General Motors, therefore, recommends that child restraints be secured in a rear seat outside position, including an infant riding in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding in a forward-facing child seat and an older child riding in a booster seat. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the right front passenger's seat. Here's why: A child in a rear-facing child restl-..It can be seriously injured or killed if the right front passenger's air bag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating air bag. Always secure a rear-facing child restraint in a rear seat. You may secure a forward-facing child restraint in the right front seat, but before you do, always move the front passenger seat as far back as it will go. It's better to secure the child restraint in a rear seat. There is a limited space in the rear seating area of a crew cab pickup model. If you want to secure a f child restraint in a rear outside seating position o a crew cab model, be sure to study the instructions that came with your child restraint to see if there is enough room to secure your seat properly. Don't secure a child restraint in the center rear seating position, because the restraints won't work properly. 1-41
