2005 MAZDA MPV Structurebodydoor Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 MAZDA MPV. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE DOORS FAILED TO OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. THE CONTACT HAD TO OPEN THE WINDOWS TO OPEN THE DOORS FROM THE OUTSIDE HANDLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE POWER SLIDING DOOR RARELY WORKS. TYPICALLY IT OPENS 1-3 INCHES THEN STOPS AND BEEPS. IF I MANUALLY OPEN IT A FEW MORE INCHES THEN PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN IT WORKS ON OCCASION, OTHER TIMES I MUST TURN OFF THE POWER TO MOVE IT AT ALL. IT IS A 2005 MPV WITH ONLY 22,500 MILES. ALSO, ON OCCASION THE REAR LATCH OF THE SLIDING DOOR CYCLES, LIKE IT'S TRYING TO SECURE THE DOOR, WHILE DRIVING. I ONLY RECENTLY PURCHASED IT SO I DON'T KNOW IF THIS ONLY OCCURS IN WINTER (IN WI) OR NOT. I HAVE NOT YET TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER. HOWEVER, MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR HAS THE IDENTICAL VAN (EXCEPT HIS HAS 35,000 MILES AND IS AN LX, RATHER THAN MY ES). HE HAS HAD HIS FOR TWO YEARS AND HAS PROBLEMS WITH BOTH POWER DOORS, ESPECIALLY IN WINTER. HIS HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER...
