Door Hinge Problems in popular cars
Door Hinge problem is a common vehicle problem that happens to most car brands and models. The following is a sample list of Door Hinge problems reported in most popular vehicles.
Door Hinge problem of Chevrolet Trailblazer
The car involved was a 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer. Our 2003 chevy Trailblazer has smelled like fuel for a few months and we have been going through gas like crazy. We just discovered a cracked valve connecting the hose to the fuel tank. Of course, chevy doesn't just sell the valve, they want you to buy a whole new tank. After researching online, this seems to be a common problem, maybe a defect with this model and make for 2002-2004 models. I have 3 small children and am concerned that this is a huge safety issue. We had another defect problem with our Trailblazer last year, where the hinges on the rear door wore out and we had to replace the entire door. This is also a common problem with Trailblazers, but chevy will not issue a recall. We paid the $2500 for the rear door, but I don't want to pay another $1000+ for the fuel tank. This vehicle is becoming a money pit. This door hinge issue occurred 04/30/2012.

Door Hinge problem of Chrysler Town & Country
The vehicle involved was a 2001 Chrysler town and country. The VIN of this vehicle was 2C8GP64L11_. The driver's side rear automatic sliding door ceased working during cold weather conditions at random times over a couple of years & then suddenly the automatic function of the door would not work at all when the button is pressed from the inside. Even worse is that the door will not open when using the manual handle with the lever. This is extremely dangerous, as small children could be trapped. Earlier when I took it to a dealership, they stated that a new track harness & something else was needed at a cost over $500. We cannot afford this. Doors should work manually without $500 parts. There is nothing physically wrong with the door, nor has it been in a collision etc. The failure date was February 10, 2008.

Door Hinge problem of Dodge Stratus
The vehicle had a crash. 2001 Dodge Stratus was hit on passenger side by a Jeep cherokee traveling at approximately 40 mph. The door setup in the Stratus was not at all effective. Not only did the door provide absolutely no protection to a passenger had there been one, but the entire door was forced into the inside of the vehicle. The intruding door struck and injured the driver in the car. Whether or not there was anything wrong with the structural design in the door, it should have been secured to the outside of the vehicle. Regardless, this would have been fatal to anyone on the passenger side of the car. Changes should be made to new models. This is an unacceptable flaw in the design of the car. How can daimlerchrysler sacrifice a hundred or two pounds of solid steel and hundred of precious lives to get another mile to the gallon? that passenger should have been me, but I didn't feel like going out that night. Little did I know, that had I left my house, I would not be here today. Please help me correct these awful flaws in today's compact and midsize cars.
