What owners say
#1\driver's side door makes a loud creak, and then a "pop" when the door is opened. It started about 1 week ago, and has progressed to where I enter/exit through the passenger side door. I took it to a body shop, & they stated they had repaired 5 same type door problems within the last 6 months. I have my car at the dealership now. Problem #2= the passenger side door electric lock will not unlock the driver's door. It raises the lever, but not completely and will not unlock the driver's door. It has to be done manually. Problem#3= car stalls when letting off the gas at low speeds, especially when going around curves. It does this whether it is hot/cold, wet/dry or full/low gas tank. I have had fuel injectors cleaned & fuel filter changed. Problem seems to occur every 3 to 4 weeks, for a day or two and then disappears. I have to shift car to neutral, restart it and give it some gas. Then, when I wish to stop, I have to keep my foot on the gas pedal, and the brake, to keep a steady flow of gas to the motor or it dies.
