Narrative

An employee was working to change the tires and brakes on a vehicle. He pulled the vehicle out of the bay. The brakes failed, and the car drifted backward into another bay where it pinned the injured employee against the arm of a vehicle lift. The injured employee sustained seven fractured ribs on his left side.
