Consumer Description

AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS MALFUNCTION ON A REGULAR BASIS. THEY DO NOT SHUT ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT AND ONE OF THE REAR DOORS (PASSENGER SIDE) WILL OPEN AND SHUT WHILE THE VAN IS MOVING (IN REVERSE). SOMETIMES IT WILL TAKE UP TO 10 ATTEMPTS TO GET THE DRIVERS SIDE SLIDING DOOR TO SHUT, MY KIDS CALL IT THE "OPEN AND SHUT" GAME. VERY ANNOYING IN BAD WEATHER AND ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN WITH THE DOOR THAT WILL OPEN AND SHUT WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING.*AK
