2018 Chrysler 300 CFACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE

Active Restraints

The active restraints for this vehicle include:

  • Child Restraint Anchors  - All vehicles are equipped with three, fixed-position, child seat upper tether anchors for the rear seating. These upper anchors are integral to the rear shelf panel support. Two lower anchors are also provided for each rear seating position. The lower anchors are integral to an isofix cross member welded to the center floor panel beneath the rear seat. These lower anchors are accessed from the front of the rear seat where the seat back meets the seat cushion.
  • Front Seat Belts  - Both front seating positions are equipped with three-point seat belt systems employing lower B-pillar mounted inertia latch-type emergency locking retractors, height-adjustable upper B-pillar mounted turning loops, a traveling lower seat belt anchor secured to the outboard side of the seat frame, and a traveling end-release seat belt buckle secured to the inboard side of the seat frame. The passenger side front seat belt retractor is switchable to an automatic locking retractor for compatibility with child seats. The driver and passenger side front seat belt buckles each include an integral seat belt switch that detects whether the front seat belts have been fastened.
  • Rear Seat Belts  - All three rear seating positions are equipped with three-point seat belt systems. The outboard seating position belts employ C-pillar mounted inertia latch-type emergency locking retractors, fixed position upper C-pillar mounted turning loops and fixed lower seat belt anchors secured to the lower C-pillar. The center position retractor is secured to the rear shelf panel and the fixed lower center seat belt anchor is secured to the floor panel. All three rear seat belts have fixed end-release seat belt buckles secured to the floor panel, a double buckle unit on the right side and a single buckle unit on the left side. Both outboard second row seat belt retractors are switchable to an automatic locking retractor for compatibility with child seats.
