| Component | VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | My husband was exiting the passenger side with the door open and had his right hand on the door frame, fingers on the edge of the roof. I had just shut the car off and pushed the button to close the large panorama sunroof. The sunroof is above the car and over the back window when it's open, so it was coming forward and down and closed on top of his fingers. He was screaming in pain and i had to figure out what was wrong, and quickly push the button to get the sunroof back open and free his fingers. His fingers are severely bruised today. It seems like there should be a safety mechanism where if the roof is closing on something it reverses itself. If that had been a child's fingers, i think it's likely they could have been severed. |
