Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We purchased a 2005 chevy uplander when it was 1 yr old with 10,000 miles on it directly from a chevy dealer. one month later, the rear passenger sliding door started automatically reopening it after both the shut buttons by the driver seat and the button on the door itself were pushed to close. this van has now been back to the chevy dealer 6 times for this problem within the 7 months we own it. the dealer has made it pretty clear to us that they can not find or fix the problem. they have now taken the stand of, "let's see if it works this time". i have a toddler and i am scared to drive this car. the door opens by itself. also - there is not a safety mechanism on the door to reopen if something, like my daughter's arm or leg get in the way. i have parked the car, and gone into a store and watched the door close, to only cone out and find the door wide open. my inital fear is that the car was broken into. i will not drive this van any longer since it is an accident waiting to happen. *nm
