MPV DX V6-2.5L DOHC (2000)
Rear Door Latch: By Symptom
Recall 99V191000: Rear Door Lock Malfunction
Vehicle Description: Minivans. Due to the inappropriate shape of the linkage in the rear door lock controller, accumulated dust may prevent the door
lock mechanism from functioning properly, causing incomplete locking of the door when the childproof locking system is used. This could result in an
opening of the door while driving, increasing the risk of personal injury to a vehicle occupant.
Dealers will install parts in the latching assembly that will prevent this problem from occurring.
