1 Battery Dead problem

Failure Date: 06/08/2012

Hypothetical situation 1: electrical fire in car, shorts our power to passenger compartment. Electric windows won't work, power door locks won't work. On gm vehicles, with power door locks there is no way to escape from the passenger compartment. Outcome: serious injury or death hypothetical situation 2: vehicle submerged in water shorting out power. No way to escape, as electric windows don't work and power locks don't work. Outcome: serious injury or death hypothetical situation 3: sitting in vehicle, hot summer day, fuse blows, electrical short, or battery dies, with windows up, and doors locked, no way to escape short of breaking window, if able. Needless to say, gm vehicles with power windows and power door locks have a safety issue. Simple solution do as all other auto manufactures do, connect door handles to open door even if locked.
