The passenger side door and window mechanism is not working properly. The door can not be unlocked with a key, with keyless entry remote or from unlock handle on the inside of the car. The door will not stay unlocked even after turning key in key slot. The only way to open passenger side door is to insert key in key slot, turn key and pull door handle at the same time. The passenger can not open door from the inside. When opening or closing window, the window would get stuck. The window switch would have to be switched between open or close several times before window will continue moving. Both of these malfunctions are potential safety issues. What if the passenger(s) need to get out during an emergency?
