On-going problem with fluid leaking from door frame. Whenever fluid gets on a person's skin it causes it to burn. Dealer notified, informing consumer that they need to clean the rubber with paint thinner when needed. Can NHTSA help in this matter.
I often lock my wife in the car in certain areas. I lock the door with the automatic button on the inside. When I come back to the car and ask her to open it from the passenger door button(or driver's) it won't unlock. This is not a one time incident. It is freightening enough that we keep a spare key in the glove box---if she turns the ignition on--she can unlock doors.
