Mid/rear Seats Assembly problem #1

My back seats were folded down. Before I went to work with the car off and at rest, I went to fold them up, grabbing the small hole that holds the latch that attaches to the back. My right index finger slid across the apparently sharp, uncovered metal edge of this hole. The top couple millimeters of the tip of my finger were sliced off by this metal edge. I had to go to the doctor. I needed a tetanus shot. It was a judgement call whether I needed stitches or not but the doctor gave me sutures. I may lose this part of my finger - we will see.

Mid/rear Seats Assembly problem #2

The contact owns a 2009 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated they were raising the rear seats and her finger was sliced off. The contact stated the compartment you pull the seats back into place was very sharp. The contact had the tip of the middle finger on her right hand sliced off. The contact stated the failure was a safety issue because the latch was very sharp. The failure and current mileage was 33,000.
