Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When you are in the car and the manual locks are locked you can not open the door. You have to unlock it first to open door. Normally a locked door will open when you open the door. This continues to happen. Then when you are locked in you can't even unlock the door by rolling the window down and inserting the key to unlock it. It will not work. Therefore I have to crawl through the passenger door and mess with the lock and key to get it unlocked. I feel this is very dangerous. I see no recalls on this matter. I talked to an auto body shop that says this is not fixable.”
