Defect
On driver and front passenger door locks, improper process control during manufacturing causes the noise-prevention stopper rubber to be installed in a misaligned position. Repeated opening and closing of the door causes the rubber to obstruct the door lock mechanism, preventing the door from latching securely. In the worst case, the door may open while the vehicle is in motion.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the driver and front passenger door locks with conforming units.
