| Description of the problem | My 12 year old son reached back for the seat belt for the middle row seat behind the passenger while the automatic door was closing. His hand became trapped between the door and frame as the automatic door shut. The door did not release automatically and only released when he used his other hand to push the "door open" button. Unfortunately he suffered a fracture of his 4th right metacarpal. We are very concerned about the close proximity of the door mechanism and the seat belt, and also about the lack of a safety mechanism for automatic sensing/release. |
