| Description of the problem | All of the exterior door handles are extremely loose and one of them i have to make sure that the handle goes in all the way because my kids sit in the back seat and i'm afraid that the door might swing open one day and an accident may occur. Also the door handles sometimes don't open on the first pull whether its from the inside or outside. |
