Description of the problem | Simply getting into the car as getting into any car. Under portion of dash so low it caused abrasion and bruising to right shin upon entry. Very painful and unnecessary. Some modification needs to be made to allow for a diminutive person with long legs to enter car safely. This happened about fifteen minutes ago (9 a. M.) and i am still reeling from the pain of it. The injury was quick and without notice, so the impact is sudden and unexpected. Notes: height 5'1" leg length 32" at inseam this is a rental car (enterprise). License plate [xxx] [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
