Dodge Avenger: Structure
Affects Dodge Avenger · 2008 — about 7K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the front door latch cable may become partially unseated from the interior release handle housing. This may cause the latch to stick in the unlatched position or the lock-function to become inoperative. Attempting to drive a vehicle with a door in the unlatched position can result in increased risk of injury to an unbelted front seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will add a secondary retention feature to both front doors.
