| 2010 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES | ON SUNDAY 9/1, I CAME OUT OF CHURCH AND COULD NOT OPEN MY PASSENGER BACK DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. MY SON TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 9/4 WHERE I GET MY SERVICE DONE, HE WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE $80 TO LOOK AT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE MY WARRANTY HAD RUN OUT, BUT THEY WOULD DEDUCT THE $80 FROM THE PRICE OF REPAIR, I DID NOT GET IT FIXED, LOW AND BEHOLD ON 9/4 AFTER GETTING OFF WORK I WENT INTO THE STORE, CAME OUT AND MY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE, VERY DANGEROUS, IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT NO ONE WOULD BE ABLE TO GET ME OUT NOR MY GRANDSON OUT WHO SIT BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT, HE IS 5. WHAT CAN I DO IF I CANNOT AFFORD TO GET THE DOORS REPAIRED AT THIS TIME. SEEMS LIKE A VERY BAD SAFETY ISSUE TO ME AND THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD FIX THIS AT NO EXPENSE TO ME, SEEMS LIKE A RECALL TO ME. *JB |
| 2001 | VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS | 3 OF 4 WINDOW MECHANISMS HAVE FAILED IN THE DOWN POSITION DO NOT ALLOW THE WINDOWS TO BE ROLLED UP. FIRST THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW MECHANISM FAILED IN APRIL 2004 AND WAS REPAIRED. THE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW FAILED IN JULY AND FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS FAILED IN OCTOBER. IT APPEARS THE WINDOW MECHANISM CORDING IS CAUSING THE MALFUNCTION. THE PASSENGER WINDOWS HAVE NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND ARE SECURED TEMPORARILY IN THE UP POSITION. THE OLD PARTS STILL IN TACT. *JB |
