Consumer Description

ON 11/23/2011, I BOUGHT A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA AT STERLING MCCALL TOYOTA. UNFORTUNATELY, THE VEHICLE WAS INADEQUATE BECAUSE OF A HIDDEN DEFECT IN THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE DRIVERS FRONT SEAT. I AM DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED BECAUSE THE WAY THE SEAT WAS DESIGNED AND/ OR CONSTRUCTED PLACES A METAL BAR TO BE COMPRESSED AGAINST THE SPINAL COLUMN. THE LOCATION OF THIS METAL BAR LOWERS THE PROTECTION OF THE OCCUPANTS PHYSICAL SAFETY AND PLACES THE DRIVER AT A HIGHER RISK FOR LUMBAR VERTEBRAE INJURY.
