Consumer Description

THE REAR PASSENGER DOORS OF THE CAR DO NOT OPEN. THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS HAVE FAILED TO WORK. THE MECHANISM DESIGN HAS FAILED BECAUSE THE MANUAL DOOR LOCK RELEASES DO NOT WORK. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO EXIT (OR ENTER) THE CAR FROM THE BACKSEAT. THE REAR DOORS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR DO NOT OPEN. THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT AND THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY PRIOR DAMAGE. SINCE MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE OFTEN RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE, THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO ACCESS THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR (ESPECIALLY IN AN EMERGENCY) UNLESS REACHING OVER THE FRONT SEAT FROM INSIDE THE CAR. *TR
