About couple/few weeks ago unable to open driver side door even when unlocked in park position and when car is turned off. It is a known common problem that have been posted on youtube. In an emergency & accident driver is unable to immediately escape/get out of vehicle because door won't open even with numerous tries from inside & outside of vehicle. We have a young child and in the event I need to get her out immediately I am unable to since driver side door won't open. My wife been having to crawl out/enter from the passenger side door in order to enter/exit car & get our daughter out of her car seat. I'm taking car to dealer on 6/26/2020 for repairs because we feel unsafe especially with a young child..

The electronics on the car are showing a suspension issue. And the electronics on the car do not work for more than 5-7 min before shutdown and restart. This includes radio, bluetooth, gps, etc. When the electronics start back up the radio is turned on.
