Description of the problem	Passenger door will not open from the inside or outside. Dealer said it is not a recall and it is not under warranty. Originally they said it would cost $500. 00 to take the door apart and fix the problem, but ended by saying they would discount the cost down to $150. 00. Don't know if this is true yet because i am waiting on the part, but i am angry because i have never had a car do this before. It is obviously a manufacturers defect and they should take full responsibility for it. I have to get it fixed because it is a safety hazard. And now that i see other people are having the same problem i am furious!
