THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR GOT STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION AND COULD NOT BE OPENED OR UNLOCKED. FINALLY GOT THE DOOR OPEN AND NOW IT MAKES A LOUD BUZZING NOISE WHEN LOCKING OR UNLOCKING. REAR PASSENGER DOOR HAS NOT GOTTEN STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION BUT HAS RECENTLY STARTED MAKING THE SAME LOUD BUZZING NOISE WHEN LOCKING OR UNLOCKING. THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THEY DOOR WERE TO GET STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION DURING AN ACCIDENT.

THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR SLIDING DOOR MAKES A.LOUD BUZZING SOUND AND THE LOCK DOESN'T WORK.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY OR AUTOMATICALLY. I CANNOT OPEN THE DOOR AT ALL. IT JUST STOPPED WORKING WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE.

REAR SLIDER DOOR LOCKED AND COULD NOT USE THIS DOOR LOCKING ASEMBLY WOULD NOT RELEASE DOOR HAD TO USE OTHER SIDE IF I HAD ACCIDENT AND CAR WAS ON SIDE I WOULD NOT GET OUT THANKS VEHICLE WAS STOPPED

THE DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR STOPPED WORKING FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT. I USED THE DOOR ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20TH AND WENT TO USE IT THE FOLLOWING MORNING AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN VIA THE KEYFOB OR THE OVERHEAD BUTTON. WHEN I TRIED TO MANUALLY OPEN THE DOOR, IT WOULD NOT BUDGE. THE LOCK MECHANISM WILL NOT MOVE. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND IT LOOKS LIKE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES BUT IT PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE IF THE VEHICLE GETS IN AN ACCIDENT, IT COULD IMPEDE PASSENGERS EXITING THE VEHICLE AND SUSTAINING FURTHER INJURY.
