The design position and force of the sliding door operation caused the passenger arm to break when attempting to exit the van. Consumer recommended that GM should mound the door handle pointing forward instead of up because the handle would have slipped out of the passenger while exiting the van. Also, a force sensor in the opening movement like that in the closing motion. Lastly, consumer also suggested that a warning sign should be installed on the door. PE04064.pco

Power door has no safety latch features to prevent door from opening when grabbed or held. This caused consumer to have a broken wrist. Took to dealer, and mechanic checked door and noticed no safety latch. Indicated one should be present to prevent consumer from breaking wrist. PE04064.pco
