Consumer Description

THE RIGHT REAR DOOR ACTUATOR WENT OUT NOT ALLOWING THE DOOR TO LOCK OR UNLOCK, OTHER THAN MANUALLY. NOT ONLY IS THIS A THEFT ISSUE, BUT A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. KIDS WERE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS AN APPARENT SAFETY PROBLEM AND AFTER READING NUMEROUS OTHER REPORTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING, IT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF/RECALLED. THIS IS APPARENTLY DUE TO A CHEAP MOTOR MADE OUT OF CHINA AND IS A FAIRLY EASY ISSUE TO RESOLVE. *TR
