Consumer Description

THE DESIGN OF THE BACK PASSENGER DOORS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE SHAPE OF THE DOOR IS IN A POINT AND NOT ROUNDED, IT IS NOT COVERED IN PLASTIC OR RUBBER. MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE OVER THE WEEKEND AND STARTED TO RUN TOWARDS THE SIDEWALK AND STRUCK HER FOREHEAD ON THE POINTED END OF THE DOOR CAUSING A DEEP GASH THAT BLEED PROFUSELY.... SHE HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE ER FOR SUTURING. VERY POOR DESIGN FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS TYPICALLY PURCHASED BY FAMILIES WITH KIDS.
