title: "Car Seat FAQ"
description: "Uber Car Seat rides use a Nuna RAVA Series convertible car seat and require drivers to view a Nuna installation demonstration. The RAVA is intended for children weighing 5 to 65 pounds and measuring 49 inches or less; parents, guardians, or caregivers must verify eligibility and secure the child properly. Nuna prefers vehicle-seat-belt installation because it avoids confusion about switching from lower anchors, fits more vehicle makes, and supports more seating positions, while NYC drivers attend an installation demonstration. Children above 65 pounds or 49 inches will not have an appropriate seat, and caregivers should consult the provided videos or manual for installation and securing guidance. To address allergy concerns, drivers may ask for children’s hands to be cleaned after eating, and caregivers should ask before food is consumed in the vehicle."

## Summary

Uber Car Seat rides use a Nuna RAVA Series convertible car seat and require drivers to view a Nuna installation demonstration. The RAVA is intended for children weighing 5 to 65 pounds and measuring 49 inches or less; parents, guardians, or caregivers must verify eligibility and secure the child properly. Nuna prefers vehicle-seat-belt installation because it avoids confusion about switching from lower anchors, fits more vehicle makes, and supports more seating positions, while NYC drivers attend an installation demonstration. Children above 65 pounds or 49 inches will not have an appropriate seat, and caregivers should consult the provided videos or manual for installation and securing guidance. To address allergy concerns, drivers may ask for children’s hands to be cleaned after eating, and caregivers should ask before food is consumed in the vehicle.

## Context

The FAQ addresses child eligibility, car-seat safety, installation, securing children, and cleanliness concerns for Uber Car Seat rides.

## Approach / What changed

Uber Car Seat provides Nuna RAVA Series seats, requires drivers to view a Nuna installation demonstration, recommends vehicle-seat-belt installation, and directs caregivers to installation resources while assigning them responsibility for securing the child.

## Takeaways

- The RAVA’s stated eligibility range is 5 to 65 pounds and 49 inches or less; rides do not provide appropriate seats for children exceeding either limit.
- Nuna prefers vehicle-seat-belt installation because it avoids uncertainty about changing from lower anchors and works with more vehicle makes and seating positions.
- Caregivers are responsible for proper child restraint, while drivers may request hand cleaning after eating and should be consulted before food is consumed in the vehicle.
