Description of the problem | The door latches for the driver's door and all 3 passenger doors have failed. In the case of the rear passenger doors (both driver and passenger side) this has made it impossible to open them from eirher the inside or the outside. In the case of the front passenger side door, the ability to open the door from the outside has become inconsistent and irregular; often, the door handle must be pulled mulriple times for rhe door to open. Finally, in the case of the driver's door, the door cannot be open from the outside once the door has been locked and subsequently unlocked, meaning that if i lock my car, the only way to enter it is through the front passenger door, itself an unreliable method. Currently, i cannot exit from the rear seats at all, nor can i rely on the front doors to continue to open from the inside based on the current behavior. All 4 of the dooe latches began exibiting these failures within a few weeks of each other |
