Details

What's wrong: The door closes but may not be latched. If this happens, the power sliding door can open while the vehicle is in motion, particularly when the vehicle ascends a hill, makes a turn, or travels over a rough road surface.

Why it matters: An unrestrained occupant could fall out of the van and be injured.

The fix: Dealers will install a new un-latch actuator assembly to the power sliding door. This recall has been continued under safety recall 01V-264.
