On multiple occasions while driving this vehicle at various speeds various road conditions the doors will become unlocked and partially open you have to open the door and re-close it in order for the inside lights to go off because they come on when this happens. It also appears in the driver's safety alert that the doors are unlocked this is a very uncomfortable feeling I have spoke to Volvo dealership on several locations concerning this problem which they have taken responsibility for none of it. I just don't understand how this could not be a manufacturer's problem there have been several complaints by others about this specific problem and Volvo seems to have no answer for it. I would think this would be considered a severe safety issue.
