Consumer Description

A SERIOUS BUT NON LIFE THREATENING INJURY OCCURRED TO THE VICTIM'S RIGHT RING FINGER, CUTTING THROUGH THE NAIL AND NEARLY SEVERING THE FINGERTIP. EMERGENCY MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLIDE THE 2ND ROW DRIVERS SIDE SEAT FORWARD, THE SUBJECT FINGER WAS CRUSHED/CUT BY THE SEAT SUPPORT MECHANISM. THE SUBJECTS HAND WAS ON THE REQUIRED LEVER IN A NORMAL FASHION, A WAY IN WHICH NO INJURY WOULD BE EXPECTED. A DESIGN FLAW IN THE PLASTIC PROTECTIVE COVER ALLOWS FOR FINGERS TO BE IN DANGER. A SMALLER FINGER, SUCH AS A CHILD'S, MIGHT HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY SEVERED. NISSAN NEEDS TO PROVIDE A FIX TO THIS DESIGN FLAW TO AVOID FURTHER AND MORE SERIOUS INJURIES FROM OCCURRING. *LA
