What Makes the Town & Country Stand Out

The 2015 Chrysler Town & Country excels in several key areas that matter most to parents:

• Effortless Latch connections: Both hook-style and rigid connectors work seamlessly with the second-row anchors, making installation straightforward even for first-time parents.
• Generous rear-facing space: Unlike many competitors, the Town & Country maintains ample front passenger legroom even with rear-facing infant seats installed.

• Versatile seating positions: The reclining feature on captain's chairs allows for perfect car seat angles, while the 60/40 split third row provides flexible configurations.
• Superior accessibility: The wide walkway between second-row seats and low step-in height make loading children significantly easier than in many SUVs.

Considerations for Parents

While the Town & Country performs well overall, there are some important notes for car seat installation:

• Tether anchor placement: Second-row tether anchors sit at the base of seatbacks, which can be challenging to locate initially.
• Third-row Latch limitations: The single set of lower anchors spans two seating positions, reducing flexibility when using the Latch system.

• Booster seat considerations: Third-row seat bolsters may cause slight angling that requires adjustment for optimal booster positioning.
• Buckle accessibility: Floppy seat belt buckles in the third row might prove difficult for younger children to manage independently.
