“Passenger sliding door on my 2009 Kia Sedona is very hard to open. It has been since we got it. Sometimes the door gets stuck and will not open at all from the inside. Someone has to get out another door and open it from the outside. On one occasion the dealer's mechanic told us to open the door slower - it still got stuck. On another occasion the manager of the dealership sat in the van and after playing with the door showed us how to open it by pulling on the handle two times and pushing very hard on it. The dealer wouldn't do any work to the door. …”
