NHTSA Complaint #11032622 — 2015 FORD ESCAPE

INDEX FINGER OF ADULT FEMALE SLAMMED IN DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR RESULTED IN LACERATION REQUIRING THREE STITCHES, CRUSHING THAT TURNED TIP OF FINGER GRAY AND EVENTUALLY WHAT APPEARED TO BE THE ENTIRE LAYER OF EPIDERMIS (OUTER SKIN) CONTAINING FINGER PRINTS AND NERVE ENDINGS DIED AND PEELED AWAY AND TOOK NEARLY A YEAR TO REGAIN FINE TACTILE SENSATION TO FINGER TIP (AMAZINGLY FINGER PRINTS WILL REGROW GIVEN TIME). I FEEL THIS NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED AS I SAW ONLINE ANOTHER COMPLAINT OF A 2013 MODEL RESULTED IN AMPUTATION, AND BECAUSE OFTEN IT IS CHILDREN WITH SMALLER FINGERS WHO USE THE BACK DOORS.
