i believe middle part of the bench seat in the second row doesnt have carseat anchors like left and right seats have so i would say its not safe and maybe even not legal not to mention how will your passengers have access to the third row if you will have car seats take up the whole middle row. We have 4 kids,3 of them still in booster/car seats.We have 2 booster seats in the third row and rear facing clek carseat in the middle row.My kids never move the seats when hopping in the third row because we have captains chairs

Thank you for your reply, but the car seat I put in the middle is a booster. And I only use the 3rd seat when I have a guest.

I am pretty confident that you could fit three car seats across the second row of the 7 seat configuration. Although the second row has only two pairs of lower anchors without a pair in the middle but obviously you can just use a seat belt since it does seem to have three upper anchors in the back of the second row seats (at least in some of the 7 seat configs). It will then depend more on the width of the actual seats and the location of the lower latch anchors and whether whatever seat you put in the middle is narrow enough to fit between.
