Description of the problem	Child locks issue: my family and i were going to a restaurant, and, upon arrival, my mother was unable to exit. I realized that the child lock device lever in our 2014 nissan leaf was out of the child-unlocked, or normal-egress, position. I also realized that this was a serious safety concern. I investigated the door child-lock manual lever on the leaf and invented a device to keep the lever position in the child-unlocked condition until we desired to reposition it (when traveling with small children). I also invented the alternate device, that is, to maintain the child-locked position. This device was designed to restrain the lever and indicate the child-lock condition at a glance; this is why the lever knob is visible when the object is installed and colors were used to affirm the status. For our nissan leaf, i used a green rubber insert for the child-unlocked position, and a red rubber insert for the child-locked position. This invention, along with several variations to accommodate different actuators and indication paradigms for indicating status, was recently submitted to the us patent office, and is thus ? Us patent pending.? I contacted both nissan and toyota and they replied with no interest. Please contact me and i will share details, including drawings and photographs of my fixes.
