Equipment problem #1

While driving in the parking lot of lowes, the door hinge on drivers side failed along with latch allowing it fall off. Making door unclosable and car undrivable. After taking it to repair shop, mechanic showed me several other 2004 chevy Blazers with the exact same same hinge failure. He has repaired so many of them with the same problem he concluded it must be a defect. Repair cost for this are estimated at $1k as the hinge must be replaced and re enforced, along with the drivers door and locking latch.

Owners/service Manual problem #2

While making a right turn into a parking lot, my driver's door flew open. Now the door will not stay closed. I am able to manually move the latch with the door open but it will not engage to secure the door shut.
