- the contact was rear ended by a truck while driving 5 mph. The contact states that it was windy and that there were light flurries at the time. The rear back bumper was struck at an angle on the drivers side of the vehicle. The contact has had the rear bumper replaced, and now the vehicle's left rear door is not locking and the seat belts not latching. The contact stated that door locks will not unlock or lock from the main panel and that she has to lock her car manually. The contact states that nothing was wrong with the doors, the locking mechanisms or, seat belts before the accident. The contact would like to know if the seat belts and the locking mechanism are malfunctioning because of the accident.
