Description of the problem	After reading a complaint on your site from another concerned consumer, i would like to mention the issues that are recurring with our minivan. Our automatic doors do not stop closing once an object is placed in their way. This has resulted in a number of bumps, bruises, and scares. We are forced to push our children out of the way if they accidentally hit the "door close" button on the door, because i am physically unable to stop the door from closing, and my husband, who is a 230 lbs. Former body builder has to physically jam the door back open to prevent it from closing. I have brought the car to the original dealer on numerous occasions, because i was told there is a safety feature in place to prevent it from closing on someone and causing injury. Even the salesperson was unable to get the door to stop closing on him. We sent the car to the service center for fixing and we were told there is nothing wrong with the door. Again, i read this same complaint from another concerned mother and consumer on your site, and i feel this issue should be looked into immediately. I am certain this issue could injure someone significantly, if it hasn't already.
