| Description of the problem | The door locks on the car lock at 15 mph and do not unlock until the car is stopped and put into park and motor turned off. Or i must remember to manually unlock the door. I contacted nissan to have this feature turned off, cast #19775143, they told me that the federal gov demands the doors to lock and they cannot turn off the feature. I am 67 years old, we had an old lady in my area have a medical emergency and hit some gas pumps. A fire started and she was locked into the car. A young man broke the window to get her out. What if he hadn't been there? Nissan said it is to stop ejection, what are seat belts for ? This is a stupid feature and will cause some big law suits. By the way i was able to turn off the feature on my toyota |
