Doors won't lock, open or latch by model year
What owners say
We have had all the door handles break, causing the passengers to be unable to open or close their doors. The rear back hatch has broken three times at an approximate cost of $150 for each repair. After reading the tom and ray article in the arizona republic on jan. 1, 2000, I beleive this is a very common problem that can cause a safety hazard.
Door will not open from the outside or inside. First occurrence was with the driver's door and repairs were made at owner's expense. Currently, passenger door has the same problem. Dealer contacted and will remedy problem at owner's expense.
The rod that is on the inside of the door handle broke on the passenger's side door, causing outside door handles not to operate properly, having to get it on the opposite side. Currently, the driver's side handles have done the same thing.
Front seat passenger's door latch keeps breaking, this is the third incident. There are indications of prohibiting occupants from exiting the vehicle.
