Consumer Description

ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION, THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER HAS BEEN LAUNCHED OUT AFTER BEING HEATED UP. IT HAS LANDED IN MY LAP WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS GOING UNDER THE CAR SEAT WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I DO NOT WANT TO BURN MYSELF OR HAVE TO TRY TO FIND A RED HOT LIGHTER UNDER MY SEAT WHILE DRIVING. I BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF SOMEONE WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE LIGHTER LIKES TO LAUNCH ITSELF OUT. DT
