We have basically just resorted to leaving the harness in fully tightened position at all times because it’s so hit or miss whether you will be able to get it tight again after you loosen.
Have removed it and taken it apart several times to ensure the belt paths are all without tangles etc. always clear. The seat just sucks.
Very hesitant to buy another.
Hate to say it but theres something going on with your seat. Im very familiar with the platform and that harness should be flowing very easily.
One thing I found happened somewhat often was that the foam of cushions could drift downwards. This would cause excessive friction on the webbing of the harness. Other issues includes food or debris getting caught in the webbing lock, or improperly fed webbing through the various paths.
I dunno if you live down south but Id be more than happy to take a look at it for ya.
Also, if youre kiddo is forward facing, make sure the webbing is going straight into teh back of the seat or slightly above the shoulder line. If its going below the shoulder, your headrest is set far too low and that will increase the difficulty in tightening the harness.
