| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I am poa for james hampton owner of the vehicle, 2004 chrysler sebring convertible was involved in a head on collision , james hampton suffered serious injury , the convertible top was down at time of accident. observing him prior to the accident in the vehicle i made the observation that he didn't appear to fit this car well, he is six foot three inches tall, top of windshield is about mid forehead in height on him, at time of incident air bag did deploy, still severe head injury to forehead on left side, observation of injury and location leads me to question that had he been under six foot in height air bag would have afforded more protection from impact of windshield, or if height of windshield was higher impact might have been different, car was determined a loss. i am concerned that consumer height, above average could possibly predispose one to more serious or fatal injury due to height of windshield relevant to area of impact. *jb |
