NHTSA complaint #11678182, filed 2025-08

“While driving the car at any speed between 35mph-70mph, one of the doors will occasionally unlatch. No more than one has unlatched at the same time. All four doors are set to lock automatically once the car is in motion. When a door unlatches, I get a visual alert on the dash, car dings loudly, and I can visually see a 2-3 inch gap between the open door and the vehicle. The door lock symbol on the driver's door still shows the doors are locked (even when the driver's door is the one unlatched). It is frightening when this occurs. Another issue also occurs intermittently. …”
