Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The left rear door fails to latch close. the only way i found to keep the door closed is to operate the inside door release lever many (30-80 times) and try closing the door ever so often. it appears that the door fails to latch most often when it hasn't been used for a couple weeks. i have sprayed lubricating oil/solution into the latching mechanism several times. each time the problem will go away for about a month and then it fails to latch again. i intend on bringing the vehicle to the dealership to see if they can do anything. *jb
