“I recently rented a brand new Buick Lucerne car from enterprise rentals. The following day I was standing by the rear of the car and I sustained a painful burn on my leg from the chrome tailpipe. Second or third degree burn approx 3x3 cm. I am very concerned that a child could grab onto the tailpipe and be severely burned. I have photos.”
