Description of the problem	The passenger sliding doors on my 2009 kia sedona is very hard to open, sometimes, the right door can not be opened at all. There was a door latch recall in 2011, i had the latches attended to, afterwards, the doors worked for a while and then they stopped and havent worked since. Also, the automatic feature only worked for 9 months after purchasing the vehicle. This is a real safety hazard due to the door not allowing you to enter or exit if a problem occurs. To open the door, you literally have to stick your fingers in the crease outside of the door, pull on the handle while tugging on the door extremely hard. I believe this is dangerous and a huge safety issue. The dealer told me it was nothing they could do or it would be very expensive to check the problem out.
