Find the best car for your family with Cars.com

Posted on October 31, 2017 by AustinCouponing.com

Car safety is one of the most important things when shopping for a car in my family. Since we became parents the whole car buying dynamic has changed dramatically, when we used to be driven by aesthetics now the main concern is how many air bags a car has and how many car seats and how to installed them. Crazy mom alert I know! BUT after hearing so many stories about children involved in car wrecks I promised myself I would become more vigilant about it.

Cars.com offers an array of installation tips for almost every single car! Certified child passenger safety technicians conduct hands-on tests of a car’s Latch system and check the vehicle’s ability to accommodate different types of car seats. All you have to do is search for your car HERE, and you’ll get lots of tips and instructions on how many and what kind of car seats you can fit into your specific vehicle. You can search their database of an insane amount of cars with all the specs you might not even know you needed to make your decision.

How neat is that?!

Is this something you think you would use? Did I mention is 100% free? So what are you waiting for?
