2007 GMC YUKON Structurebodyhatchbackliftgate Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE CLOSING THE BACK-HATCH DOOR IT CLOSED ON HER DAUGHTER'S HAND. THERE WAS NO MANUAL WAY TO REOPEN THE HATCH DOOR. THE DOOR OPERATES ELECTRONICALLY. IT TOOK 15 SECONDS FOR THE DOOR TO REOPEN. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS CURRENTLY JUST A YEAR OLD AND THE TOP LAYER OF THE SKIN WAS TORN OFF THE INFANT DAUGHTER'S KNUCKLES. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT IMMEDIATELY REQUIRED BUT THE CONTACT WILL MONITOR THE SITUATION AND TAKE THE DAUGHTER IN IF NECESSARY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED YET.

FINALLY, THE ENTIRE HATCH WAS REPLACED AND THERE HAD BEEN NO FURTHER OCCURRENCES. ON NOVEMBER 6, 2007, THE STABLE TRACK WAS NOT DRIVING PROPERLY AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT MADE A CRUNCHING NOISE WHENEVER IT WAS MOVED. THE DEALER CLEARED THE ELECTRONIC CODES AGAIN AND DAMAGED THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. ON DECEMBER 26, 2007, THE HATCH AREA WAS LEAKING AND CREATED PUDDLES OF WATER IN THE REAR OF...
