What owners wrote

During rear side-impact collision at 15-20ph, rear tailgate latch failed, causing tailgate door to fly open and belongings inside of vehicle fell out.

January 1995 Crash

Driver side door opened while rounding a bend causing me to almost fall out of the vehicle. If it hadn't been for the seat belt I would have fallen out. After the door opened I swerved loosing control however there wasn't an on coming vehicle at the time. From the force of the door swinging open both of the joints broke off and the service man at our local dealer informed us that he sees many of these problems on the 1994/1995 models.
