THE BACK SEAT, WHICH CAN FOLD DOWN, DOES NOT LATCH TO THE ATTACHMENT, AS DESIGNED. THIS SEAT CAN LUNGE FORWARD, WHICH COULD BE HAZARDOUS TO A PASSENGER OR EVEN THE DRIVER. THIS IS PROBLEMATIC, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE BRAKES NEED TO BE ENGAGED QUICKLY'THE UNLATCHED SEAT SLAMS FORWARD.
