WARNING -Exhaust Fumes
No one should be allowed to occupy the trunk
of the vehicle at any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally closed and the person is unable
to get out, severe injury or death could occur
due to lack of ventilation, fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of exposure due to cold
weather conditions. The trunk is also a highly
dangerous location in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected occupant space and
is instead part of the vehicle’s crush zone.
