Description of the problem | As i was driving on the freeway, a car on the left side of me crossed over a solid line and attempted to make his way into my lane. He came within inches of side blinding me. I quickly jammed on my brakes, and beeped my car horn. He then swerved back into his lane. Fortunately for quick actions, this incident didn't result into an "accident." but what really concerns me is the fact that both seats in the back fell forward exposing my trunk! If my five year old was with me, he would've been sitting in the back and could have possibly gotten injured, as everything from the trunk including the seats flew forward. Please check if there are other complaints regarding this problem. I purchased this specific vehicle because of its high safety rating. |
