Consumer Description

WITHIN A FEW WEEKS BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR ACTUATOR MOTORS FAILED. THIS PREVENTED THE VEHICLE FROM AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING THE DOORS WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THIS ALSO PREVENTED BEING ABLE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK EACH DOOR USING THE REMOTE OR THE LOCK BUTTON INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON CONCERN FOR THE VEHICLE. EACH REPAIR RAN APPROXIMATELY $500.00 EACH. THE DOORS NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING PRESENTS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. IT WOULD ALSO MAKE YOU MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO HAVING ITEMS STOLEN OR CAR JACKING. THIS OCCURRED WHETHER THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING OR NOT.
