The Driver Door is made horribly. The Plastic door handle on the inside breaks internally and externally easily. the outside doorhandles springs broke so it is lose as hell. if the door is locked and someone tries to open the door from the outside then you unlock the door you still cant open it from the outside making you have to go inside and open it. none of the exterior keyholes work so if i lose my key less entry key chain or the batteries die i have no way to get into my car.
