What owners wrote

Power sliding door failed to retract. Once when my wife was leaning in the van to get something, I accidentally pushed the button on my key chain that closes the door. It jammed her leg. The door didn't reopen until I pushed the button. This happened a second time when my wife was again getting something out of the back seat when my granddaughter pushed the button on the inside of the car to close it. My wife said she even tried to use her body weight to stop the door or to make it open back up, but it didn't.
