In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that does not have seats and safety belts. Make sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a safety belt correctly. Make sure that the liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust fumes from being drawn into your vehicle. This will also prevent passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the liftgate door open, keep your vehicle well ventilated so outside air does not enter your vehicle. 55 Fiesta (CCT) Vehicles Built From: 01-04-2013, Vehicles Built Up To: 31-12-2013
