I just purchased the Chicco Bravo Primo Trio travel system, which includes a stroller and infant car seat that latches into the stroller. I seem to be having trouble with unlatching the infant car seat once it is attached to the stroller. Sometimes it seems that all I have to do is to gently squeeze the orange button on the back of the car seat, and it easily unlatches. Other times it is almost impossible. The only way I can get it to release in these moments, is to push down on the car seat’s rebound bar (pushing straight down on the bar from above, pushing towards the ground), and then squeeze the button. This seems to help the latches release (??) Does anyone else have this system, and can you share any troubleshooting insights? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a special trick or technique you’ve used in the same scenario? Thanks!
Re: Chicco Bravo Primo Trio Travel System
I had a similar issue with the Chicco Bravo Primo Trio system when I first got it! The trick that worked for me was ensuring the car seat is fully seated in the stroller before attempting to unlatch. Sometimes, if the seat isn’t perfectly clicked in, the latches can stick. When it gets stuck, I press down gently on the back of the seat (like you're doing with the rebound bar), which seems to realign things, and then squeeze the orange button firmly but not forcefully.
Also, double-check that no debris or dirt is caught in the latching mechanism—it can affect how smoothly it releases. If it still happens often, Chicco customer support is super helpful and might offer additional tips or a replacement part if needed. You’re not alone in figuring out this system! 😊
