| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: After a ride in my 2006 mini cooper, i reached into the back (hatchback) to get out my bag and burned my leg on the exhaust pipe. bmw/mini said that everything is to spec, but i think it is a bad design that it sticks out just a little further than the bumper and should be corrected. i will have a scar on the outside of my leg due to this design. *jb |
