  • 140,000 miles
Two of the inside door handles have snapped off and had to be replaced. This is a safety hazard. A minor fender bender could jam the doors and the handles be too weak to open the door mechanisms. If a fire, occupants would perish. Recall in order for all vehicles with plastic inside door handles. Updated 09/11/2017
