I read a review of the H3 on the Yahoo site and someone said there were no childproof locks on the rear doors. Say it isn't so!!!
Also, we have a 2 year old with twins on the way. Does anyone know if three car seats will fit on the back seat?

I've read someone'e review where they did have 3 seats in the back but it was tight. I'm not sure about the child locks..I'll have to check.

It isnt so...

I think 3 seats back there could be pretty tight but I survived childhood without a car seat or childproff locks

Congrats on the twins.

3 car seats should fit in the back of the H3. As for the child locks not sure...Maybe you should look into getting an H2? It will fit 3 car seats no problem and I know for sure it has the child locks

3 car seats...no worky to well. I tried to get 2 toddlers seats and 1 baby backward facing seat and it wouldn't work.

True, I was thinking of 3 "baby" seats.

I would just take your 3 seats to the dealer and see how they fit.

I too read about the lack of child locks on YAHOO. I asked my dealer when I bought it, and he was unsure. We looked, and could find no visible child locks. We could also not find any mention of their existence in the manual. If they exist I have been unable to find them.

There are not any child locks on the H3. The doors auto lock in Drive, but can be manually unlocked. As well only 2 car seats will fit properly. 3 can be squeezed, but the center will not secure the seat properly. The center has a drink holder which arches the back seat. You cannot connect all 3 at one time and get the proper tension on the belts. Even a single seat won't secure properly in the center. As well i survived and haven't had any issues with our 3 yr old, yet. The H2 does have room for 3 and child locks. Family trips=Armada, fun=H3.

Thank you. We're pretty excited.
Not having childproof locks is a serious omission IMHO. Maybe the 2007 will add them.

Never really think about it since I don't have any small kids but I am surpised they didn't include them.

that is odd... mine does have the child proof locks... can't imagine Dept. of Transportation enforces airbags but not child safety locks. Anyway I have a button on the door below the window controls with a car door window and an x over it that takes the two back doors off the grid.

That is a window lock so that only the driver's switches will control the windows.

Yes, that prevents the rear windows from going down when engaged. The doors will still open.

So i assume the H3 will never aquire the "soccer mom" vehichle label due to lack of saftey features..

Thank you....

correct me if I'm wrong... that just shuts the window controls. and it cuts for every window except driver.

I think they are asking about that little switch usually located inside the door well which you can flip to on or off. This will eliminate the door from being opened from the inside.

and... I just ran outside to check on the h3 and infact we DONT have child locks. I'm actually surprised to see this as well.

found this in autobytel safety...

holy crap... who'd a thought. Is the H2 like this as well? Thats kinda nuts... someone needs to tell hummer of this little oversight.
