A label on your sun visor says,
“Never put a rear-facing child seat
in the front.” This is because the risk
to the rear-facing child is so great,
if the airbag deploys.

CAUTION
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the right
front passenger airbag inflates.
This is because the back of
the rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the
inflating airbag. A child in a
forward-facing child restraint
can be seriously injured or
killed if the right front passenger
airbag inflates and the
passenger seat is in a forward
position.
