NHTSA Complaint #10576691 — 2010 CHEVROLET HHR

I ATTEMPTED TO OPEN MY 2010 CHEVY HHR'S REAR PASSENGER DOOR. THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. ALL OTHER DOORS ARE OPENING OK. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. NOT BEING TO EXIT A VEHICLE UNDER EMERGENCY CIRCUMSTANCES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ALTHOUGH GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. THE GM DEALER I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO TOLD ME IT WAS MY PROBLEM, NOT GM'S. I HAVE FACED MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE; KEY STUCK IN IGNITION, POWER STEERING FAIL WHILE DRIVING, MULTIPLE SETS OF BRAKES BURNT OUT, INSIDE DRIVER'S DOOR HANDLE BREAKING OFF AND NOW THIS NEW ISSUE WITH THE DOOR. THE NHTSA REALLY NEEDS TO URGENTLY ADDRESS THE MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND HOLD GM RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR POOR ENGINEERING AND QUALITY CONTROL, BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE LOSES THEIR LIFE. *TR
