| Description of the problem | I own a 2009 chevy tahoe and i have been dealing with door lock problems for the past year. The driver door will not open at this point and rear passenger door will not open from time to time. At this moment we have 2 working doors, but i am concerned that in case of an emergency these remaining 2 currently working doors will not open either and my family may be trapped. Someone suggested we contact the national transportation safety board and file a complaint to see if maybe we can force gm into a recall since this is a safety issue. Is this something you would be able to help us with? Please advice on how i should proceed with this issue. Thank you so much in advance for your help and cooperation with this issue. |
