The vehicle had a handicapped driver conversion, with a gull-wing driver's door. The driver's door was only held closed with a magnet at the front of the door opening. There was not a latch to actually hold the door closed. In the accident, the truck was traveling at a high rate of speed on a gravel road. The roadway sharply descended to a low-water bridge, which caused the truck to elevate and leave the roadway. When the truck returned to the road, the magnet holding the driver's door failed, the driver's door popped open, and the driver was ejected 80 feet. The driver is now quadriplegic, suffering a C6-7 spinal cord injury, and a traumatic brain injury. The photo files illustrate that the driver's door was ripped off because it was opened, and the passenger doors were locked completely shut. Consumer stated they did not contact the conversion company, conversion is a faulty design. When traveling down the road, and encountered a bump, the driver's door would "bounce", and most of the time the road was visible through the bottom of the door. Vehicle was a total loss.
