| Front Seat Recliner problems |
While at a stop a vehicle hit the Metro in the rear and the Metro went forward hitting another vehicle at a frontal impact, but the driver's and passenger's airbags did not deploy, which did not protect the occupant in this accident. Also, during the accident the driver's seatback broke, causing the occupant to fly backward and may have caused injuries.
