Description of the problem	My smallish sized purse slipped off the passenger seat and wedged between the seat and the floor board below the door, landing on the electronic seat controls that recline the passenger seat. It reclined the back while i was driving on a bridge and couldn't pull over or stop, smashing my grandson's legs, who was in his car seat behind the passenger seat. He was screaming and there was no way for me to reach the controls to stop the empty seat from reclining, squishing him into his car seat ! Luckily, it didn't break both of his legs, but it could easily have done that if he'd been a little bigger. As it was he was terrified and so traumatized, i'm not sure i'll ever get him back in this car. There should be controls that can't accidentally be engaged or some kind of reachable control from the driver's seat.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
