The side door does not close all the way and makes a loud noise. We brought it in for this before about 3 monthis ago and it started doing the same thing again. I have read many complaints about this. The door is not over used. Now the vehicle has 43000 miles on it and it is out of warranty. We have 4 children and are afraid for their saftey with a door that does not close all the way. I feel if it was fixed right the first time there wouldn't be a reoccurring issue. Thank you.
