Consumer Description

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM OUTSIDE WITH KEY OR INSIDE WITH LATCH. I'VE BEEN USING THE KEY TO OPEN THE DOORS FOR THE PAST YEAR BECAUSE BOTH REMOTES STOPPED WORKING. ALL DOORS UNLOCKED BUT THE DRIVER SIDE. IT LOOKED LIKE THE DRIVER LATCH WAS NOT MOVING TO THE FULLY OPEN POSITION. I LOWERED THE WINDOW AND TRIED TO MOVE THE INTERIOR LATCH MANUALLY BUT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. I ENTERED THE DOOR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE IN ORDER TO DRIVE. I CHECKED TODAY AND THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY QUOTED $280 FOR A REPLACEMENT PART. NADA SAYS ITS THE VEHICLE IS WORTH ABOUT $2000, I CAN GET ABOUT $400 AS SCRAP. I THINK ITS TIME TO GET RID OF A CAR WHEN IT NO LONGER WANTS TO LET YOU IN OR OUT OF IT. *TR
