ON 1/9/99 THE PASSENGER DOOR OF MY 1993 VOYAGER FLEW OPEN AS I WAS TURNING A CORNER. MY SON WAS IN HIS SEATBELT AND WAS THEREFORE NOT INJURED. THE REASON THE DOOR OPENED WAS A LATCH FAILURE. THE DOOR LATCH HAD TORN AWAY FORM THE SHEET METAL ON THE DOOR. THE DOOR LATCHES ON BOTH DOORS HAVE REPEATED FAILED TO ENGAGE PROPERLY. USUALLY THIS WAS REMEDIED BY CLOSINF THE DOOR AGAIN. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALERS DURING THE WARRANY PERIOD. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM WAS "LOOSE SCREWS" IN THE DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY. THE SCREWS WERE TIGHTENED AND SOMETIMES REPLACED BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. NOW I'M TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM IS REALLY DUE TO IMPROPER DOOR ALIGNMENT. THIS CAUSED THE LATCHES TO LOOSEN. HOWEVER AFTER REPEATED OPERATIONS IN THIS CONDITION IT ALSO CAUSED THE METAL AROUND THE DOOR LATCH TO FAIL. THE METAL IS RIPPING AROUND THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH AS WELL. THE CAST TO REPAIR IS $250 PER DOOR. CHRYSLER WILL NOT ASSIST WITH REPAIRS SINCE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. (EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM WAS BROUGHT TO THEIR ATTENTION DURING WARRANTY AND MISDIAGNOSED. THIS MAY BE A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM.
