| Description of the problem | In below freezing temperatures, drivers side front door latch fails to lock in closed position when door is closed, allowing door to open freely without using door handle. The only way to secure the door for transit is to either hold it closed manually or run a strap between the two interior door handles to keep it from flying open. After vehicle has been running for a while and interior is warmed up, latch begins working as normal. |
