Consumer Description

DRIVER SIDE DOOR OPENED WHILE ROUNDING A BEND CAUSING ME TO ALMOST FALL OUT OF THE VEHICLE, IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR THE SEAT BELT I WOULD HAVE FALLEN OUT. AFTER THE DOOR OPENED I SWERVED LOOSING CONTROL HOWEVER THER WASN'T AN ON COMING VEHICLE AT THE TIME.FROM THE FORCE OF THE DOOR SWINGING OPEN BOTH OF THE JOINTS BROKE OFF AND THE SERVICE MAN AT OUR LOCAL DEALER INFORMED US THAT HE SEES MANY OF THESE PROBLEMS ON THE 1994/1995 MODELS. I HAD ALL OF THE RECALLS DONE TO DATE INCLUDING THE REAR LATCH, THAT I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH . I HAVE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE 02 SENSOR. I FELL THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FAR WORSE IF THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ON COMING CAR AT THE TIME, WE WERE VERY LUCKY.
