Narrative

CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS. MY FAMILY WAS DRIVING WITH BOTH PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS DOWN. (FRONT AND REAR). WHEN I PUSHED THE DRIVER CONTROL TO RAISE THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW, THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW ALSO RAISED AT THE SAME TIME, CRUSHING MY WIFES ARM. THIS PHENOMENON IS REPEATABLE OVER AND OVER AGAIN.*AK
