Not sure what would have happened if there was a crash and I could not get him out. Have seen lots of others with similar problems on the internet. Seems like this shoudl be addressed or someone will end up getting killed becasue they could not get out.
I have always driven chevy, love them. However, in each I have had problems with my doors. I own a 2005 Impala,, and all of my doors are not working, two do not work at all 1 has to be held closed with a rope and the last is starting to show signs of breaking. I have taken to a chevy dealership and they can not figure out the problem period. Um, this cost me money to do so. Please direct me to any recalls or how on earth to fix this problem, cheaply or free since it has got to be a manufracturing problem. . [xxx]

My eight year old granddaughter had cut her left leg just above the knee when entering the right rear door of the new Chevrolet Impala that we had just bought that same day, April 29, 2006. There is a "latch plate" located on the lower door jams of both rear doors and they are openly exposed and have very sharp edges. As she was entering the vehicle, her left leg brushed across the "latch plate" causing her injury. She required emergency room treatment and three stitches in her left leg. The design and location of this "latch plate" make it dangerous for persons entering and exiting the through the rear doors of this vehicle.
Power locks would lock intermittently, dealer notified, and informed consumer that after starting vehicle he should wait until the system has completed before shifting into drive. This would correct the problem. Consumer wanted to know why should one have to wait? consumer was also informed that is the way system was designed.
