THE ADJUSTOR FOR THE TOP TETHER CRACKED IN HALF. HAD TO PAY BRITAX FOR A NEW ONE PLUS SHIPPING. THEN I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OTHERS WITH MARATHONS SERIAL: E9W0672008780 MODEL: E9W0672 BATCH: 507735 DOM: 03/10/05 I THINK THIS MAY REQUIRE A ADVISORY RECALL. IT IS NOT RIGHT TO MAKE SOMEONE PAY FOR A NEW STRAP FOR A PIECE THAT SHOULD HAVE LASTED THE FULL 6 YEAR LIFE SPAN OF THE SEAT! (RELATED VEHICLE INFORMATION: MODEL YEAR=1999, MAKE=MITSUBISHI, MODEL=LANCER). *TR
