Description of the problem	Driver door latch electrical component consistently thinks the door is ajar when in fact the door is closed. This sets the vehicle car alarm off when the vehicle is parked 2-4 times a day. Additionally, when driving the vehicle at night, all of the interior lights remain on as it thinks the door is open, causing night time driving very difficult. This is obviously a flaw in the design since the switch is built into the door latch.
