Consumer Description

I CAME OUT TO GET IN MY CAR THIS MORNING AND THOUGHT IT WAS STRANGE MY HUSBAND HAD NOT CLOSED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. I GOT IN AND CLOSED THE DOOR AND IT POPPED OPEN, IT WOULD NOT LATCH. I TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES AND CHECK TO SEE IF ANYTHING WAS PREVENTING IT FROM LATCHING AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. I PULLED IT SHUT AND MANUAL LOCKED THE DOOR AND IT STAYED LATCHED. I DROVE TO WORK, GOT OUT AND SHUT THE DOOR WITH NO ISSUE. I GOT IN THE CAR AGAIN, NO ISSUE. GOT OUT, WOULD NOT CLOSE, SO I PUSHED IT SHUT AND LOCKED WITH REMOTE, IS STAYED LATCHED, THEN I TRIED TO GET BACK IN, USING THE REMOTE, THE LOCK INSIDE THE DOOR POPPED UP LIKE IT HAD UNLOCKED, BUT THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. AFTER 4 ATTEMPTS I GOT IT TO OPEN. GOT IN AND DROVE, GOT OUT, DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE. HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT TOMORROW. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IF THE DOOR COULD POP OPEN AT ANY TIME! *TR
