Driver's side rear sliding door ajar, light not showing on dashboard when the door is ajar. Light does come on when door is completely unlatched and off when closed, but does not show when door is ajar. Report from service manager was that there is no correction for this problem.

Defective motor is causing automatic power sliding door to open by itself intermittently which could cause injuries.

The power sliding door does not always close completely. In some cases, it catches the initial locking point, but it won't pull the door in and completely lock and seal the door. Most times if I use the power door switch three or four times and it still won't close, so I have to disable the power feature and close it manually. There, also, have been two incidences where the door didn't close all the way and was still ajar, but the open door indicator on the dashboard indicated it was closed.

Automatic sliding power door closes on its own. The dealer has been notified.
