STRUCTURE:BODY
BOTH SLIDING DOORS LOCKING MECHANISM HAVE MALFUNCTIONED. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE. EITHER THE DOOR IS STUCK IN LOCKED POSITION (DRIVER SIDE) OR IN UNLOCKED POSITION (PASSENGER SIDE). NEITHER THE POWER LOCKING/UNLOCKING FUNCTION CHANGES THIS, NOT MANUALLY SLIDING THE LOCK. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AS CHILDREN IN BACK OF VAN MAY BE UNABLE TO EXIT VEHICLE IN CASE OF ACCIDENT. I HAD TO PAY MECHANIC HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX BOTH DOORS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR MAKES AN AWFUL WHINING/GRINDING NOISE WHEN UNLOCKING AND LOCKING THE DOOR. IT APPEARS TO ALSO TRY AND OPEN AT TIMES WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT SEEMS VERY UNSAFE AND ALSO VERY OBNOXIOUS TO LISTEN TO. I AM AFRAID IT MAY NOT OPEN WHEN NEEDED OR WILL OPEN WHEN IT SHOULDN'T. *TR

POWER TRAIN
HAD A WHINING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. AFTER ABOUT 1 OR 2 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE WHINING GOT REAL LOUD AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR. I LET OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR AND IT NEVER DOWN SHIFTED OR UPSHIFTED. IT JUST COASTED. WENT TO ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE JUST REVVED THE RPMS HIGH. EVENTUALLY COASTED TO A SPOT TO GET OFF THE ROAD. CAN SMELL TRANSMISSION FLUID. HAVE NO LEAKS. NOW IT WON'T DO ANYTHING TRANSMISSION WISE. THE VAN WILL START UP AND IDLE FINE. JUST NOTHING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. *TR
