Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The trunk lid on this vehicle will sudden drop on your head. It has hit me several times. No warning. It can be in the up position while i am unloading my groceries and then suddenly "bang!" i get socked by this trunk lid. The hood will not stay up either but it doesnt suddenly drop just goes down and wont stay up. I warn the service technicians when they check my oil to be careful or they could get injured. There is no way to adjust the trunk or the hood. The dealer says its about $300. 00 to fix both. I have never had a car which the trunk fell on me or the hood will not stay up. Can you help me with this problem i am afraid i will be knocked out late at nite while loading at the supermarket and its a scary thought for older women alone at nite. *ak |
