Consumer Description

TODAY AFTER LOADING MY SON INTO HIS CAR SEAT (LUCKILY I HAD HIM SECURED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BACKSEAT) I TRIED TO CLOSE THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES CLOSING AND SETTING THE LOCKS, AND EVEN SETTING THE CHILD LOCK TO NO AVAIL. I HAD TO RESORT TO RUNNING BUNGIE CORDS THROUGH THE DOOR HANDLE TILL I COULD GET TO THE DEALERSHIP. AT LEAST THEY OWNED UP TO IT BEING A WARRANTY ISSUE BUT MAYBE THEY SHOULD LOOK INTO ALL OF THE DOOR LATCHES BEFORE I GET IT BACK. *TR
