| Children became locked in the hatchback, the children crawled in hatchback and closed the door, because the storage shelf was in place the children could not crawl up over the back of the seat and get out as the hatch was not designed with a latch to unlock the door from the inside, the consumer feels the storage shelf is a danger even thought there is a warning. *ak *mj | |||
