Consumer Description

I'D UNLOCKED MY DOOR AND WHEN I TRIED TO CLOSE IT, IT WOULDN'T CLOSE LIKE IT SHOULD. IT'S LIKE THE ACTUATOR WAS STUCK & WOULDN'T CLOSE. IT DOES THIS FOR A FEW MINUTES OF ME CRANKING AND TURNING OFF THE IGNITION. FINALLY, AFTER I CRANK IT UP AGAIN, IT JUST CLOSES LIKE NOTHING EVER HAPPENED! I WAS STUCK IN A PHARMACY PARKING LOT FOR LIKE 15 MINUTES THINKING OF HOW I WAS GOING TO GET HOME BECAUSE MY DOOR DIDN'T CLOSE! VERY, VERY INCONVENIENT! I ALMOST HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK & WOULD'VE BEEN OUT OF A COUPLE HUNDRED OF DOLLARS FOR THIS!!! WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN!!!?! THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED! *TR
