Man sues BMW after his thumb gets cut off by automatic door
A US-based man has sued BMW claiming that his X5 model's automatic door severed his right thumb. The lawsuit said his right hand was on driver's door, which was "one-foot ajar" when the sensor activated an electric motor, which closed the door. Since the incident on July 6, 2016, the 61-year-old underwent two operations, but claims "it's painful beyond belief".
