Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

Inside the Coach is an entertainment center covered with hinging doors and a magnetic close. The first year we owned it the doors flew open while driving. In the process the left door broke off the hinge and fell on the seat. The second time it happened going over railroad tracks. This time the broken door fell on the seat and then on the floor. Normally my Jack Russell is in that seat. She could have been killed but the first time she was on the floor while still attached to the seat belt and the second time she was in the other seat with out other dog. That time she was also attached to the seat belt. I would hate to imagine what would happen if a child had been sitting there. A child could be killed or have a head wound best case. I have pictures but have not been able to upload them to this platform. If you give me an email address I would be happy to send them. I have also contacted Coachman.
