MY HUSBAND GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT ON SEPTEMBER 24TH 2004 IN OUR 2004 HONDA CIVIC DX, HE WAS REAR ENDED AND HIS SEAT BROKE AND TURNED 30 DEGREES TOWARDS THE PASSENGERS SEAT AND NOW HE HAS EXTENSIVE INJURUES TO HIS BACK, AND IS UNDERGOING EXTENSIVE MEDICAL TREATMENT AND THERAPY.*AK

MY FIANCE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN TWO REAR-END COLLISIONS, BOTH IN HONDA CIVICS, OVER THE LAST YEAR (THE LAST ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON 11/12/04), AND IN BOTH CASES, THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK BROKE SO THAT SHE WAS THROWN BACK AT A GREATER ANGLE THAN ONE WOULD HAVE EXPECTED. THE FIRST ACCIDENT REQUIRED HER TO HAVE A PAINFUL BACK OPERATION, WITH VARIOUS VERTEBRATES BEING FUSED. THIS CANNOT BE A COINCIDENT THAT HER SEAT BACK BROKE ON BOTH OCCASIONS.*AK
