Consumer's 2-year old son is able to open passenger's door while vehicle is in motion. Vehicle was not made with the child proof lock. Consumer has no where else to place his child because extended cab is not fitted for child safety seats. Doors that can be opened with only a pull to the handle can cause serious injuries to passenger.
