Description of the problem	I pushed the button to open the sliding doors and there have been so many times when the door will close without having been told to. Typically, the sensor will catch when there is a hand or a child pushing it back open, but there have been occasions, like today that it started to open, then about 18 inches after it had begun opening that it reverses and closes and does not have the sensor kick in. Today the door slammed into my left shoulder. I had to use all my strength to push it off my shoulder and to override the motor to get it to open. I am so grateful my 2 year old was still on the shipping cart because that would have crushed his hand if he wasn't able to get out of the way. Most times it is the passenger side siding door that does this. Last week was the first time that the drivers side door did the same thing, which pinned my wrist between the door and the frame, and tried to close on it twice. I am personally afraid that one of these times the door is going to forcefully close and cause some severe damage to one of my children.
