Door ajar warning inadequate, when door is a couple of inches open warning institutes, rather than when door is on first safety latch as it should be when ajar, when door is open prior to latch door is open not ajar!safety concern!
2006 chevy hhr . The drivers side door interior door handle snapped off in my hand when I tried to open the door, smacking into my knuckle and almost causing my hand to fly back into my face. The door must now be opened by rolling down the electric window and opening from the outside handle. Two dealers so far refuse to fix the issue, telling me they don't have parts.
