| 2003 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES | THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK WILL NOT WORK. THE DOOR STAYS LOCKED AND WHEN IT FIRST OCCURED THE PASSENGER HAD TO CRAWL OUT THE WINDOW. NEITHER THE ELECTRONIC KEY LOCK NOR THE PUSHBUTTON LOCK CONTROL ON THE CONSOLE WILL OPEN THE DOOR LOCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. ALL OTHER LOCKS WORK FINE, INCLUDING THE TRUNK. THE MANUAL DOOR OPENER WILL NOT OPEN THE PASSENGER DOOR EITHER. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SINCE, IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, THE PASSENGER WOULD BE TRAPPED IN THE VEHICLE. *TR |
