Blend door failure due to poor design. Discovery of actual issue was after many trips to different machanics ,who werent able to figure out the problem.

Consumer stated that yesterday she placed her granddaughter in car seat after unlocking the vehicle. When she shut the door on the passenger's side rear, the vehicle locked. After the door locked she went inside and had someone call 911 because her grandchild was in the vehicle. She lives in California, because of the heat she had the side panel window broken behind the driver's seat. This has happened once before, but consumer did not think anything of it, she thought that she had locked it herself. Consumer has not contacted the dealership and manufacturer yet.

Little knob that manually locks the door is so far down inside the door that consumer has to use two fingers to get the locks up.
