COMPONENT: Latches/Locks/Linkages: Doors: Latch
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 11191
SUMMARY:
On certain passenger vehicles, the front door latch cable may become partially unseated from the interior release handle housing causing the door latch
to stick in the open position and not be secured to the striker.
CONSEQUENCE:
During certain crash conditions, the possibility of a door opening could cause an unbelted passenger to be ejected, increasing the risk of injuries.
REMEDY:
Dealers will add free of charge a secondary feature to both front doors to prevent the door latch cable ferrule from becoming unseated at the interior
front door release handle housing. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact DaimlerChrysler at
