LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
EVENT_SUMMARY
There's a concern with the latches on the rear doors of your vehicle. A buildup of corrosion can cause the latch to bind, making it hard to open or close the door, and potentially leading to the door not latching properly.
RISK_ASSESSMENT
If the door doesn't latch properly, it could open while you're driving, which could lead to a serious accident and injuries if someone falls out of the vehicle.
RESOLUTION_PROTOCOL
You'll need to take your vehicle to the dealership, which will fix the issue for free. They'll add a seal to the door, check the latches, and either lubricate them or replace them if they don't work properly, and they'll also give you a sticker with recommendations for keeping the latches in good condition.
