MY CAR DOORS ARE LOCKED AND CAN'T BE OPENED AT ALL! IN THE PAST, I'VE BEEN LOCKED INSIDE THE CAR AND COULDN'T GET OUT UNLESS I STOP THE CAR, TURN IT OFF, ROLL DOWN MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW, AND STICK THE KEY IN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, AND MANUALLY TURN IT TO UNLOCK IT. NOW MY DOORS WILL NOT OPEN AT ALL. MANUALLY OR ELECTRONICALLY. NONE OF THEM. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE A SEVEN YEAR OLD SON THAT RIDES WITH ME IN MY CAR ALL THE TIME. THESE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED AND TAKEN OFF OF THE STREETS FOR GOOD. THEY'RE ARE POTENTIAL DEATH TRAPS!
