Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have suffered an accident in which i was severely injured by the seat belt. i was in the back, right side with my seat belt on. because of it i had a ruptured spleen, ruptured sigmoid, explosion of appendix and ruptured cec. not to mention the horrible hematomas in and outside my abdomen. i needed emergency surgery and 2 weeks of hospitalization. the car in which this happened is a chevrolet lacetti and the place where it happened is bucharest, romania. i would like to file a complaint against this company because this kind of injury shouldn't happen because of a seat belt. i believe that the design of it was incorrect and they have to do something about it. *jb
