What owners wrote
The sliding door was opening (via keychain button), but opened only halfway before slamming shut very quickly. It was like it thought it hit something in by the back tire, but there was nothing there. My daughter had started getting into the car, so the door slammed shut on her finger and actually latched closed with her finger stuck inside. The door hasn't worked since. This "safety feature" backfired.
This car was purchased just 14 days ago and has been in the shop for 4 days out of that. It was raining outside and when I got into the car noticed that water was leaking from the body structure between the windows and windshield near the drivers seat. It was dripping continuously and I took my car to service centre. Would have been glad if there was a way on this site to upload the pictures to show the real issue.
