Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2006 SCION XB. THE BACK LATCH (MADE OF FIBERGLASS) HAS COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF ON ONE SIDE. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE AND IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET INTO THE CAR USING THE REAR ENTRANCE. IT IS EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT IF SOME ONE WAS IN THE CAR IN AN ACCIDENT OR IF THIS WAS THE ONLY ACCESS TO GET INTO THE CAR TO HELP VICTIMS ACCESS IS NOT AVAILABLE. I HAVE SEEN 4 CARS OF THIS MODEL JUST IN MY AREA THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IF YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THERE IS AN ACTUAL ACCIDENT THIS IS A INFERIOR SYSTEM! *TR
