Imagine driving in your minivan with your children when all of a sudden the sliding door pops open, putting you and your family at risk. More than 2 dozen complaints have been filed with the national Highway Traffic and Safety Administration from drivers with faulty sliding doors with General Motors minivans, most notably the Chevrolet Uplander. Other vehicles being complained about include the Buick Terraza, the Pontiac Montana and the Saturn Relay. Despite these complaints, there has been no recall Consumers have complained of having the door pop open at speeds exceeding 45mph. Most complaints filed have dealt with 2005-2006 models.

According to on-line reports, GM has previously said there is a quick fix for the problem and they have issued a preliminary report to the service managers on how to fix the issue, blaming it on doors sensors being affected by debris, but there are plenty of consumers who are returning to the dealer time and time again, only to hear that the service manager cant diagnose and/or fix the problem.

Kimmel and Silverman has handled over 100 sliding door case similar to this in the past two years, and says the problem is not limited to GM. These cases have resulted in full or partial refunds for our clients. The frustration lies in the fact that GM is not issuing a voluntary recall on the problem.
