Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“A man climbed into a community center van (used to haul food, all metal and no seats in the back), on a cold night and he apparently set a small fire in the back, presumed to keep warm. Child safety door locks on all doors prevented him from getting out. Evidence in van showed that he tried to kick door and windows out but he was unable to get out. He was found dead in the van, with the fire out. The community center reported that an employee had previously been trapped in the van due to the child safety locks.”
