The liftgate does not always stay in the up position. It lifts to the top and then drops quickly with no resistance. It seems worse when the outside temperature is colder (below 40-50 degrees f.

Front driver side door will not unlock manually or electronically. While taking a drive to the store and upon arriving today I was unable to get out of the driver door. This could present a danger if for some reason I can't exit my car in a hurry.

Drivers side sliding door latching mechanism wont latch a major safety concern with kids in back seat

Filed May 13, 2019 · Body · 86,000 miles · NY

I have a problem with the drivers side door that I believe is a dangerous safety issue.the drivers door has a problem with the actuator, which controls the automated locking and unlocking of the door. The actuator is defective and no longer works. As a direct result, the door (and all of the remaining doors in the vehicle) will no longer automatically unlock. In the event of an emergency, the door latch to open and exit the car immediately will not work. The door knob must be manually lifted; this is the only way to unlock the door. Prior to this issue, the vehicle door swould automatically unlock when the car was placed in park position and then locked when the car was moved out of park (either reverse, neutral or drive). I have been told that this is a $400 repair to replace the arm actuator. This part specifically controls the automated locking/unlocking mechanism for the drivers side door (and all other doors of the minivan, which must all be manually unlocked since this part is not functioning properly). I have tried to use the door lever to open the car and when it is in the locked position, the door will not unlock, ever. The door knob must be lifted in all instances and I believe this is a safety issue for all passengers in the vehicle.

Leak on driver side side airbag. Possibly trim piece that runs entire length of the car. Shorted out entire electrical fuse box I under the hood. Told it was cause of the windshield gasket. Replaced entire electrical issue and windshield to now have the same leak issue again!

The automatic side doors. The left sliding door when you go to open the door it opens just alittle and then closes I have to have my kids not to get to fast on trying to get out cause it has almost closed on one of their legs. The left door all no longer opens from the door handle only from the outside handle or the button the driver can push. It also when it is open and you go to close it it will start to close then reopen. Sometime I have to put the van in reverse or drive to get the door to even close. Sometimes I can get it to close while open with the inside handle but I have to be careful cause it's closed on my arm a few times plus seems like the sensor the door is supposed to have on the door to tell someone or something is the doesn't work the right sliding door is also starting to do the same thing since I've been having my kids try to use that door more. I'm afraid my kids or whoever is in the van at any time is gonna end up trapped and no able to get out in an emergency or anything and for bigger kids and adults it's harder to climb over seats. And also the driver doors automatically lock but when you try to go and unlock it it will lock back so you have to unlock manually.

Right rear sliding door has opened while car is moving. Suspect it is the cause of the battery being drained twice in the last few days when car was not driven during 48 hour period. The door will not open electronically now. It has to be forced open manually.
