Description of the problem | The passenger sliding door has locked shut. I am unable to open it at all. This occurred randomly, while my wife was by herself, 39 weeks pregnant with a small child and a toddler inside the vehicle.. I have researched this malfunction and it seems to happen often to this make (dodge and chrysler) minivan in the past several years. In my opinion, this seems like an extremely hazardous malfunction. I have a 4-year old, 2 year old, and a newborn all in carseats in the van. In the case of an emergency, and this door was unable to open, i would not be able to get all of my children out. |
