Consumer Description

WHILE LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE AT A DEALER, THE HACHBACK DOOR OPENS TOO FAST UNTIL SLAMMING TO THE END AND IT BUMPED A LITTLE UP AND DOWN WHEN COMPLETLY OPEN, IT APPEARS THE TWO LITTLE SHOCK ABSORBERS OR WHATEVER THEY ARE CALLED DO NOT HELP THE DOOR TO OPEN SLOW. I NOTICED THE BODY OF THE CAR ON THE SIDES (BETWEN THE WINDOWS AND THE ROOF AT THE LEVEL WHERE THE HINGES ARE) THERE WAS A LITTLE LINE AND IT WAS BENT TO THE OUTSIDE A LITTLE AND IT WAS ABOUT TWO INCHES LONG ON EACH SIDE. I TOLD THE SALES PEOPLE IN CASE THEY SALE THE CAR WITHOUT FIXING IT. *JB
