Consumer Description

THIS WAS ORIGINALLY SUBMITTED ON 10/14/2003, BUT BECAUSE I DON'T SEE IT ON THE NHTSA WEB SITE, I AM RESUBMITTING: THE LIFTGATE WINDOW OF 2003 GMC ENVOY XL EXPLODED/SHATTERED WHEN I TRIED TO OPEN IT BEYOND THE FIRST FEW INCHES. A SHOWER OF GLASS RESULTED IN A SEVERE FACIAL LACERATION TO MY 4-YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. THERE IS NO WARNING WHATSOEVER ON THE WINDOW OR IN THE VEHICLE OPERATING GUIDE REGARDING SUCH A DANGER. THIS DEFECT IS A MAJOR DANGER THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN EVEN GREATER PHYSICAL INJURY AND HAS LEFT A SCAR ON MY DAUGHTER'S FACE. *LA
