Consumer Description
THIS IS A HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE CAR WHOSE ROOF FOLDS INTO THE TRUNK SPACE WHEN THE TOP IS DOWN. UNLIKE A PREVIOUS HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE I OWNED (VOLKSWAGEN EOS), THE ROOF ON THE INFINITI GOES DOWN EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN OBSTRUCTION IN THE TRUNK SPACE (SUCH AS A BOOK). [THE ROOF OF THE EOS WOULD NOT GO DOWN UNTIL THE OBSTRUCTION WAS REMOVED]. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITH THE INFINITI, CAUSING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF DAMAGE TO MY CAR. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF A CHILD WERE TO CLIMB INTO THE TRUNK (GOD FORBID) AND THE TOP WERE TO BE ENGAGED, THERE WOULD BE NOTHING TO STOP THE ROOF FROM CRUSHING THE CHILD. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SERIOUS SAFETY SHORTCOMING. I CALLED INFINITI MOTORS AND EXPRESSED MY CONCERN; THEY CREATED A FILE AND BASICALLY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. *TR
