MY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I OPENED THE BACK HATCH TO ALLOW MY CHILDREN TO LOAD THEIR VIOLINS IN THE BACK BEFORE TAKING THEM TO SCHOOL. THE HATCH SUDDENLY CAME DOWN QUICKLY ON ITS OWN, SLAMMING DOWN. IT HIT MY SON'S ARM JUST AS HE PULLED AWAY FROM THE CAR. IT COULD HAVE CAUSED HIM GREAT BODILY HARM. EVERY TIME I PUSH THE REMOTE TO OPEN THE HATCH IT OPENS COMPLETELY THEN SLAMS BACK DOWN.
