Consumer Description

I CLOSED THE DOOR ON 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 TO GO AROUND THE TRUCK TO GET ME GRAND DAUGHTER OUT OF THE OTHER SIDE REAR DOOR. WHILE WALKING AROUND THE TRUCK THE DOORS LOCKED ON THERE OWN AND KEPT LOCKING AS I TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR WITH A KEY. ALL WHILE MY GRAND DAUGHTER WAS LOCKED IN THE TRUCK. I FINALLY TIMED THE KEY TURN AND WAS ABLE TO UNLOCK AND GET MY GRAND DAUGHTER. I DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS, BUT IT JUST HAPPENED\ AGAIN. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND DIDN'T KNOW IF IT HAS HAPPENED TO ANYONE ELSE. *TR
