| LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES - TRUNK LID - LOCK | |||
| 04/20/2008 | 1 | 04/11/2008 | |
| I used my trunk for the first time after purchasing my new car. after i shut it, there was a gap between the trunk lid and the bottom, as if it was still open. i put my hand underneath the trunk lid in order to lift and try again. before i could lift, the trunk hydraulic-ly closed down tightly on my fingers. my hand was clamped, immovable. luckily in my other hand i had the keys, and was able to unlock the trunk, because the pain was excruciating. i believe this may have had something to do with the mechanics of the hard top convertible which lowers into the trunk. while this may be a good way to trap a burglar who thinks the trunk is open, it is very dangerous, and especially if a small child happened to put their fingers near it. this caused deep indentation marks on the tops and bottoms of my fingers, wrist throbbing and numbness/prickling in my fingers. *tr | |||
