| Description of the problem | While driving in a rough main highway in windy conditions a right side compartment door opened 4+ times in 200 miles. Door properly closed and locked each time. No damage happened but this 4 ft door could easily cause vehicle or property damage or bodily harm. Latch seems properly adjusted, latch will not hold the door pressure, retracts latch and comes open, the door latch is not adequate to keep door closed. Same problem one time on a left side door when driving in town. This is a common problem on the forza forum and is a danger to property and life. |
