Body Problems of Chevrolet Express 3500

I purchased my 2003 chevy Express 3500 in 2003. On the passenger side of the van there is a front passenger door and are two passenger doors on the side of the van. In five years time I have had trouble with the side passenger door hinge seizing up and now I can't open the left side door and it is improperly seated in the door opening, I now do not have a tight seal and the right side door cannot close properly. This poses a safety hazard because in an emergency the left side door cannot be opened.

The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Express 3500. The contact stated that the side door hinges were collecting moisture and causing them to rust, making the door inoperable. The contact called the manufacturer regarding the failure and the manufacturer advised that there were no recalls regarding the door hinges. The contact stated the rear side door does not open and could cause a major safety issue. The failure mileage as 184,000.

We currently own a 1998 and a 2000 express van and we have the same problem on both of them, the passenger side doors (the 'double doors') are seizing up. We tried to lubricate them but it hasn't helped any. The one door on the 1998 has gotten so bad that we can't even open the left hand side door because it is so hard to shut and it has already started to become out of alignment. I believe this could be a safety hazard as we have 6 children, 3 of which have to sit in the back seat and if there is an emergency we wouldn't be able to get the door open to get them out faster. We have had a dealer drill holes in the hinges to lubricate them, but this seems to be a temporary and eventually ineffective fix to a major problem.
