RWARNING
All built-in child restraints, including
seats, buckles, retractors, seat latches,
interlocks, and attaching hardware
should be inspected by a qualified
Dealer technician after any collision.
If the child seat was in use during a
collision, Ford recommends replacing
it. However, if the collision was
minor and a qualified technician
finds that the child restraints do not
show damage and continue to
operate properly, they do not need to
be replaced. Built-in child seats not
in use during a collision should also
be inspected and replaced if either
damage or improper operation is
noted.
