| Description of the problem | The latch on the back door melts when the weather is hot, leaving a black, tarry mess in my hands. Now that the weather is cold, the latch on the back door is frozen solid, making it extremely difficult to open the back door at all. This could be dangerous if i need to open it quickly. The van is, of course stationary when i try to open the door. The dashboard also melts in the heat. |
