Q: All doors cracked; driver's door will not open
The driver’s door on my car has snapped and the other three doors are all cracked in the same way. The only way I can get into my car is to open one of the passenger doors, reach across from the inside, and then open the driver’s door. Do you know if I can contact someone to see if Chevrolet will honor that this problem should not have happened to all four doors?
