Nissan Child Safety Guide in Edmonton, Alberta
Automotive manufactures have spent billions of dollars researching and designing vehicles that will meet the needs of automotive consumers. Not only have they focused on features and technology, but the need for safer vehicles has become priority number one. The development of driver assistance features to chassis engineering vehicles have never been safer. At Nissan, safety is at the top of their list. Before they design or engineer anything, it needs to pass the safety test first before it can move on to the next stage.

Nissan understands that your passengers, especially the ones that can't yet buckle themselves in, are the most important things in your life. As a parent, you know that finding the right car seat can be difficult. That's why Nissan has launched a first of its kind initiative within the automotive industry. As a Nissan owner or soon to be one, our Nissan Child Safety Seat Fit Guide, also known as Snug Kids, was developed to help Nissan and INFINITI owners choose the right child seat.
Safety is Paramount
The Snug Kids program launched in January of 2002 with the assistance of participating child seat manufacturers to help lessen the confusion for parents when selecting a new child seat. Its main purpose was to help save children's lives and continue the pursuit of child safety education.
