THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES THE DOOR ALARM GOES OFF WHEN THE DOOR IS NOT ACTUALLY OPEN, WE HAVE TO PULL OVER AND RESET THE DOORS BY OPENING AND CLOSING THEM. THE ROLLER BEARINGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE ON THE DRIVERS SLIDER. BOTH DOORS HAVE BEEN SERVICED AT LEAST 10 TIMES FOR IMPROPER CLOSING, FAULTY SENSOR ALARM DINGING EVEN WHEN THE DOORS ARE CLOSED, SOMETIMES IT TAKES MANY ATTEMPTS FOR THE DOORS TO CLOSE. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ALMOST CAME COMPLETELY OFF WHEN THE ROLLER BEARINGS BROKE. THESE DOORS ARE UNSAFE AND BEYOND DEFECTIVE. *TR

I BOUGHT MY UPLANDER AT DEALERSHIP MILAGE WAS AT 24,000. THE DOOR WOULD OPEN AND NOT CLOSE WE FINALLY GOT THIS FIXED I HOPE. JUST YESTERDAY AT MILAGE 45,000 WE HAD TO REPLACE TIE ROD ON PASSENGER SIDE. FOUND OUT THAT IT DID NOT HAVE GREASE PIN ON IT CALLED MANUFACTOR AND THEY SAY SOMEONE HAD TO HAVE REPLACED IT. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT HAD EVER BEEN REPLACED AND THIS IS WHAT IS CAUSING TIRE WEAR AND VIBRATIONS IN THE UPLANDERS WHICH ALSO COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS EVEN DEATHS. ALSO WHEN DRIVING ALL LIGHTS WILL GO OFF UNTIL YOU HIT BRAKES I HAVE HAD DIAGNOTICS CHECKED TO SEE IF ANYTHING WOULD SHOW UP. NOTHING DOES. SO THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN ALSO . THERE SEEMS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEMS LISTED FROM ALMOST EVERYONE AND SOME OF THESE THINGS COULD COST CONSUMERS THEIR LIFE OR THEIR FAMILIES. WHILE I LIKE THE UPLANDER I AM CONCERNED THAT THE SAFETY ISSUES ARE NOT BEING HANDLED BY MANUFACTOR AND NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE. WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MAKE THIS VEHICLE SAFE. *TR
