Consumer Description
I WAS TRAVELING SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND THE DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN DURING TRAVEL. I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR AND I HAD MY SEAT BELT ON WHEN THIS HAPPENED SO NO PHYSICAL HARM OR DAMAGE OCCURRED JUST VERY SHAKEN UP. I GOT OUT OF MY CAR TO CHECK THE DOOR AND NOTICED THAT THE LATCH WAS IN THE OPEN POSITION AND WOULD NOT LOCK OR LATCH ON. I WAS FORCED TO DRIVE HOME HOLDING THE DOOR TRYING TO KEEP IT CLOSED BY PLACING MY HAND THROUGH AN OPENED WINDOW WHILE I DROVE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE PREVIOUS RECALL AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. I ALSO CONTACTED CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403 AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR HAD ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AGAIN.. *TR
