| Description of the problem | I have 31,00 miles on my 2013 altima which i purchased about three-and-a-half years ago. I was in my car, and i tried to get out. I pulled on the door handle and the door wouldn't happen. I had to leave my car running in my garage and open the window to get out of the car. This would be dangerous in an emergency situation. This problem can result in death. If someone is in an accident and their window won't roll down, they wouldn't be able to get out of the car, and could get severely injured or killed by being trapped in the car. |
