description: DOOR ALMOST KILLED MY DAUGHTER. WE WERE GETTING KIDS BUCKLED IN AND MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER FELL DOWN. I WENT TO THE OTHER SIDE TO HELP HER. WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR I SAW SHE WAS STUCK BETWEEN THE DOOR AND THE SEAT AND THE DOOR WAS MOVING BACK ON HER. HER HEAD WAS JAMMED BETWEEN THE SLIDING DOOR CUP HOLDER AND THE SIDE OF THE VAN. I AM 220LBS AND WITH ALL MY MIGHT WAS HOLDING THE DOOR FROM OPENING ALL THE WAY AND I THINK CRUSHING HER HEAD (AS THE DOOR GOING BACK WITH THE CUP HOLDER ON THE FLOOR- WAS PINNING HER HEAD BETWEEN THE DOOR AND THE VAN). THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THE DOOR IS VERY GOOD WITH ANY OBSTRUCTION WHILE THE DOOR IS CLOSING IS SENSED BY THE DOOR AND IT IMMEDIATELY STOPS. YOU NEED A SIMILAR SENSOR SO THAT IF A HEAD, OR ARM OR LEG IS CAUGHT IN THE DOOR WHILE IT IS SLIDING BACK TO OPEN, IT WOULD STOP IMMEDIATELY. THE DOOR CLOSE BUTTON WOULD HAVE WORKED OR PULLING THE HANDLE OUT (WHICH I DID NOT KNOW AT THE TIME) BUT I DID NOT THINK OF IT AS I WAS IN A PANIC TRYING TO STOP THE DOOR FROM CRUSHING MY DAUGHTERS HEAD. IT SHOULD HAVE AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED IN CASE AN ADULT WAS NOT THERE PLEASE FIX THIS THIS REALLY COULD HAVE KILLED MY DAUGHTER INSTEAD HER EAR IS VERY HURT BUT SHOULD BE OK. THANKS SO MUCH- TIM
