2005 SATURN VUE Equipment Problems

SATURN HAS SAID THIS VEHICLE AND THE LAST ONE ARE SAFE TO DRIVE BUT MY CONCERN IS TWO VUE'S AND BOTH HAVING THE STEERING COLUMN REPLACED AND TOLD THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I CAN'T BE...

DT: THE CONSUMER OWNS A 2005 SATURN VUE. THE CONSUMER STATED HER VEHICLE WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A DOOR AJAR FEATURE. SHE STATED SHE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HER FRONT PASSENGER DOOR FLEW OPEN. THE DEALERSHIP WAS JUST AS SHOCKED AS SHE WAS BECAUSE THIS FEATURE WAS NOT INCLUDED ON HER VEHICLE. 8JB
