The problem occurred when the consumer's daughter closed the door. The consumers daughter received numerous burns and lacerations on her arms and chest.”

Upon possession the windshield molding came off on the ride home.

The bolts on the transmission were found by the dealer to have been never properly tightened. The sidedoor hinge had to be replaced at a cost of $600 because it froze up and could not be opened. …”
