Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I parked my car after arriving at my friends house, which was approx. a two hour drive. after reaching inside of the hatchback to grab luggage out of my 2007 mini cooper 's' i was burned on my leg by the tailpipe. after stepping away from the vehicle my leg was red in two spots (twin-pipe) and then bubbled in the next several hours and scabbed. i noticed that the tail pipe extends beyond the body of the car which allows for easy skin contact with the hot pipe. updated 04-15-08 *bf updated |
