To whom it may concern: I am writing you with much pain and difficulty. Today while I was attempting to pull my bench seat out of the storage well, it malfunctioned and slammed down with its full weight and crushed my arm. I went to the doctor and after x-raying it, found out that it is broken! I have been in severe pain all day. And to make matters worse my husband, who is serving on the u.s.s baatton , cannot help me in a time of transition. I have to move 2 kids, 3 dogs, and my entire household to norfolk, virginia on monday!!! I am appalled that these bench seats have no kind of safety mechanism to keep them from falling full force, injuring the people. And I shutter to think what would have happened if my 2 year old was near by and had her arm (or worse) injured. I looked thoroughly through the owners manual and found no warning what so ever of the possibility of this malfunction. Now I am not only going to have to suffer this injury, but I have to cope with extraordinary pain and difficulty during what is one of the most stressful periods in our lives. I am insisting that you put some sort of safety catch lock on these seats immediately! Not only could other people be severely injured like me, but a child could die from such an incident. You will be hearing from my attorney further on this matter, but as for now, I insist that you do something to protect other consumers. I am also sending a copy of this letter to the better business bureau, consumer reports, the transportation safety institute, the federal safety agency, and any other consumer protection agency that I can find. Sincerely, cristie escandon.
