| 2001 | SEATS:MID/REAR ASSEMBLY | COMPLAINT RECEIVED VIA E-MAIL. I WOULD LIKE TO DOCUMENT WHAT I BELIEVE IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN MY VEHICLE. THE SECOND ROW OF PASSENGER SEATS IS SPLIT WHEREBY THE END SEAT FOLDS DOWN AND SLIDES FORWARD FOR ENTRY TO THE REAR ROW OF SEATS. WE HAVE A SIX MONTH OLD BABY WHO RIDES IN A CAR SEAT WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE CENTER OF THE SECOND ROW OF SEATS. SHE RIDES IN THE CAR SEAT FACING REAR, AND SHE CAN STICK HER ARMS OUT ON EITHER SIDE. WHEN WENT TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, OUR OLDER SON SLID THE SECOND SEAT FORWARD, AND IT HIT HER OUT STRETCHED ARM, BENDING IT BACKWARDS. SHE SCREAMED AND WE IMMEDIATELY REMOVED HER FROM THE SEAT. SHE APPEARED TO BE FINE, BUT I AM CONCERNED FOR THE FUTURE. THERE WOULD BE NO DANGER TO A PASSENGER FACING FORWARD BECAUSE THE WORSE THING THAT COULD HAPPEN IS THE RIGHT ARM WOULD BE BUMPED FORWARD. HOWEVER, WITH A REAR FACING BABY, ANY IMPACT FROM THE FORWARD SLIDING SEAT, CAN CAUSE THE ARM TO BEND BACKWARD AND BREAK.*AK *TC |
| 2003 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | SOME GEAR SLIPPAGE FOR A FEW DAYS PRIOR WHEN FIRST GET GOING IN THE MORNING. THE DAY IT FINALLY WENT, IT DID IT SUDDENLY WHILE GOING ABOUT 35 MPH. FELT LIKE IT KICKED A GEAR OR TWO MAKING THE CAR JERK VIOLENTLY ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I WAS ONLY A BLOCK OR SO AWAY FROM HOME, ALL THE WAY HOME IT WOULD ALMOST REV TO REDLINE WHILE GOING ABOUT 10 MPH. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS REVERSE NOW AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A SHOP LOCALLY FOR A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX. IF I WOULD'VE HAD SOME ONE CLOSER FOLLOWING ME THAT DAY AND WITH MY KIDS IN THE FAR BACK I'M AFRAID TO THINK OF WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED EXCEPT A LAWSUIT! *TR |
