Consumer Description

ABOUT A YEAR AGO THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK STUCK AND I COULD NOT OPEN THE DOOR. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND THEY FIXED IT. 2 MONTHS AGO THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK AND I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR, OF COURSE NOW THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY NO LONGER APPLIES. *JB
