Consumer Description
THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN A GARAGE. WITH VEHICLE EITHER RUNNING OR NOT RUNNING, WE WERE UNABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AS WE WERE UNABLE TO UNLOCK AND OPEN BOTH FRONT AND THE LEFT REAR DOORS, FROM THE INSIDE (USING THE DOOR LEVERS, CENTRAL LOCKING SYSTEM BUTTON, AND REMOTE) OR FROM THE OUTSIDE (USING THE DOOR HANDLE, KEY, AND REMOTE). THE ONLY WAYS TO EXIT THE VEHICLE WERE TO CLIMB THROUGH A WINDOW OR OVER THE FRONT SEATS (DIFFICULT) TO ACCESS THE RIGHT REAR DOOR. TO GET THE DOORS TO UNLOCK, I NEEDED TO REPLACE A FUSE IN THE FUSE PANEL AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FOR AT LEAST 30 SECONDS. THIS COULD BE A DEATH TRAP IF IN AN ACCIDENT, HIGH WATER, EXTREME COLD, ETC.
