THE DRIVER'S SIDE POWER SLIDING DOOR CONSTANTLY WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING. IT WOULD ALSO NOT SHUT AND EMIT A WARNING BELL EVEN WHEN NOTHING WAS OBSTRUCTING THE DOOR. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST OVER $1000 TO REPLACE THE SENSOR AND THAT MIGHT NOT EVEN FIX IT. I FINALLY HAD THE DEALER DISCONNECT THE AUTOMATIC DOOR. SO WE NOW OPEN AND CLOSE IT MANUALLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE THE LOCK/UNLOCK WOULD OCCUR WHEN IN DRIVE AND DUE TO THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR
