Description of the problem | The front driver's side door latch broke making it impossible to open the vehicle door from inside the vehicle. The only way to open the vehicle was to lower the driver's side window and reach outside to the exterior door handle. This lengthened the time and effort significantly in exiting the vehicle. The handle mechanism broke inside the door panel and occurred during regular exit of the vehicle making it unusable until replaced by nissan at my cost. Nissan did cover the part as a warranty repair. |
