Consumer Description

THE TOP HINGE ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS ATTACHED TO WEAK METAL, CAUSING THE HINGE TO COME LOOSE. THIS CAUSES THE DOOR TO ANGLE DOWN AND CLOSE INCORRECTLY. BECAUSE OF THIS THE DOOR WILL NOT ALWAYS LATCH FULLY AND THE DOOR CAN SWING OPEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I HAD IT REPARED ONCE BY A PROFESSIONAL BODY REPAIR MAN, AND IT HAS NOW FAILED A SECOND TIME.
