CARS.COM — The Jeep Wrangler is known for its ability to crawl over any terrain, but how does this four-seater handle kids crawling in and out of it for family duty? The Wrangler isn’t exactly family-friendly; its tall step-in height means kids will need a boost into this SUV for years and years. However, it surprised us by earning a couple of As in our Car Seat Check.
How many car seats fit in the second row? Two
What We Like
- The Wrangler’s backseat has two sets of lower Latch anchors. The anchors are exposed and easy to use. Two top tether anchors sit at the base of the rear seatbacks.
- Despite the cramped backseat, the forward-facing convertible installed easily after we removed the head restraint.
- Our high-back booster seat also fit well in the backseat, and we didn’t need to remove the head restraint.
What We Don’t Like
- While the rear-facing infant seat installed easily, we had to move the front passenger seat forward significantly to fit the car seat behind it. Our 5-foot-8 tester’s knees were pushed into the glove box.
- We also had to move the front passenger seat forward to accommodate a rear-facing convertible behind it, but our tester’s knees only grazed the glove box.
- The rear seat belt buckles are floppy, which can be difficult for kids to grasp on their own.
