What owners wrote

This accident happened in a rental car through national car rental in ft. Lauderdale, fl. My wrist was broken in this incident which I believe was caused by the automatic motorized door which was slow to kick in and by the large handle/lever on the door which you must pull to engage the motor. I was a passenger in the back seat on rt. Side by automatic motorized sliding door strapped into my seat belt. We were parked and ready to get out. I grabbed lever to open the door.

Doctor's at children's hospital had to realign the bone and reattach her toe. General motors has been notified, but at this time, they are not willing to fix or replace the defective vehicle.
