Consumer Description

AFTER A ROUND TRIP 25 MILES DRIVE AND PLACING THE CAR IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE OFF, THE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL, BECAUSE THE CENTRAL LOCKING SYSTEM WOULD LOCK THE CAR, BUT WOULD NOT UNLOCK. THE DRIVER DOOR DOES OPEN FROM THE INSIDE BUT THE PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT. THIS COULD BE CATASTROPHIC IN CASE OF FIRE OR ACCIDENT.
