| Description of the problem | This is the second time in less than a year that the sliding door cable has rusted and snapped making my door unusable. My 4 year old autistic son was standing outside the door and the cable went snapping and flying before eventually jamming up the motor. It was terrifying. I had the same incident happen with the drivers side door this year. This car has 88k and has had both replaced for rusting through and snapping. What if this cable whipped and hit my child? We were lucky this time. When will someone take this issue seriously. |
