THE AUTOMATIC REAR SLIDING DOORS QUIT WORKING AND ARE STUCK CLOSED. THEY CAN'T BE OPENED WITH THE REMOTE, MANUALLY FROM THE INSIDE OR WITH THE INSIDE BUTTONS ON THE B PILLAR POST OR BY THE DRIVER FROM THE OVERHEAD DRIVER'S CONSOLE.

THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER SIDE REAR SLIDING DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM MALFUNCTIONED AND THE DOOR CEASED IN THE LOCKED POSITION AND COULD NOT BE OPENED. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.

I LOADED ALL OF MY CHILDREN IN MY VAN TO GO DO A WALMART PICK UP. ALL OF THE DOORS WERE WORKING FINE. WE GOT HOME FROM DOING OUR PICK UP, AND THE BACK DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. ALL OF THE CHILDREN HAD TO GET OUT OF THE OTHER SIDE, AND CLIMB OVER A BABY CAR SEAT. WE TRIED TO GET THE DOOR OPEN FROM THE INSIDE, AND THE OUTSIDE, WE TRIED TO DISENGAGE THE LOCKS, BUT IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THEY ARE PERMANENTLY STUCK. IF I GET INTO A WRECK, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. SIMULTANEOUSLY, THE DOOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN THE BACK WILL NOT LOCK AT ALL. THESE ARE BOTH HAZARDS WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED, AND FIXED IMMEDIATELY! I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, HOWEVER I AM NO MECHANIC. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM AND THERE ARE MANY. I JUST WANT TO DRIVE A CAR THAT IS SAFE FOR MY CHILDREN, AND MY VAN HAS LESS THAN 50K MILES ON IT, I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW OFF OF THE LOT. THIS SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM I AM EXPERIENCING. *TR

RIGHT SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT UNLOCK. NEITHER THE KEY FOB. OVERHEAD BUTTON, OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE NOR THE INSIDE MANUAL OR ELECTRIC BUTTON WILL ALLOW THE DOOR TO OPEN. BIG SAFETY HAZARD AS I TRANSPORT MY GRANDCHILDREN. I FIXED IT BY FORCING THE ACTUATOR CONNECTING ROD. HOWEVER, NOW THE LEFT SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK. *TR
