What owners wrote
The electric passenger door on my 2004 chevrolet venture has repeatedly closed with various children's body parts in its path. This closing has occurred when one child is getting into or out of the van and that child or another child has accidentally pushed the button to close the door, or when I have remotely pushed the button to close the door and one of the children has reached back in for something. The door does not stop, and crushes whatever is in it's path.
Tl*the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet venture. While driving approximately 35 MPH, the passenger side door slid open without warning. The contact's child was seated next to the door at the time of the failure. She pulled over to the side of the road to shut the door, but it would not close. An hour later, the door was able to close. The dealer was notified and stated that the sensor board needed to be cleaned. The repairs were not performed on the vehicle.
