Description of the problem | Mechanical sliding side doors 1) when parked on a hill, frnt end dwnhill the sliding door opens all of the way then slams forward frm 4 to 6 inches back toward the frnt jam, the force will knock a child down 2) the door does not have a sensor ( like an elevator) that something or someone might be n its path when closing & it will close on anything or anyone in its path when closing. My child got her arm crushed btwn the door & the jam when the door closed on her. I had opened the door w/ the remote, i reached n & the door began to close b4 i could back out & crushed me betwn the door & the jam, even after making contact w/ my body it continued to crush me, the only way n both instances to stop the door frm crushing my 4yr old's arm frm her body & it doing i have no idea the extent of what it would have done to me, was to get 2 the manual handle nside the door. The remote will not stop it & the dashboard button will not stop it. The re ote does not have an open & shut button for the door. Remote buttons are a minor point, the doors need sensors. The challenges w/ the doors not having sensors to stop them & 1button open/close on the remote r issues we deal w/ on a frequent basis. My daughter & i r not the only ones who have been crushed n the doors. We have had other children even our 65 yr old grandmother has been crushed n them. |
