| Description of the problem | Dt*: the contact stated the remedy for recall # 05v462000; power train: automatic transmission does not allow the driver to open the door in order to see around the fifth wheel while backing up. When the door is open while backing up, the horn sounded and the headlights flashed. The contact is aware that the side mirror and window can enable the driver to see around the fifth wheel, but feels the driver should have the option of being able to open the door if needed without the horn sounding and the headlights flashing. |
