Consumer Description

WE RECENTLY PURCHASE A 2005 DODGE DURANGO V-8 HEMI. WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF HAVING IT I NOTICED THERE WAS A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF NOISE COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. IT SOUNDS AS THE DOOR ISN'T CLOSED ALL THE WAY, BUT WHEN I GOTO TO RE- SHUT IT TO MAKE SURE IT IS CLOSED, IT STILL SOUNDS LIKE IT IS OPEN. THEN MY 2 YEAR OLD SON HAD ROLLED HIS WINDOW DOWN THE SAME TIME I HAD AND MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. I LITERALLY THOUGHT THE DOOR WOULD FLY OFF AND SMACK INTO A ANOTHER CAR/ BICYCLIST ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE I WAS DRIVING! THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED RIGHT AWAY! FROM READING OTHER REVIEWS ONLINE OF THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENING, IT IS OBVIOUS IT IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF THESE VEHICLES AND I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT DODGE WILL TAKE IT UPON THEMSELVES TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER! I AM SO UPSET ABOUT THIS SITUATION, I HAVE AN INFANT SON AND A 2 YEAR OLD AND THE THOUGHT OF BEING IN A WRECK OR HURTING SOMEONE ELSE IS MIND BOGGLING AND I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY IF SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS, WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. I HOPE THAT DODGE DOESN'T SEE THIS AS A MINOR DEFECT AND FIXES IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED! *TR
