DOOR DOES NOT OPEN USING EITHER INNER OR OUTER DOOR HANDLE. I HAVE SEEN MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON LINE. BUICK HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM ON MULTIPLE CARS FOR MULTIPLE YEARS. SAFETY ISSUE BIG TIME WHEN ONE CANNOT GET OUT OF THE CAR QUICKLY BECAUSE DOOR WON'T OPEN. THERE ARE ONLY 2 PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY AND THUS THE REAR DOORS ARE VERY SELDOM USED. DID NOT BREAK FROM OVERUSE, DESIGN PROBLEM.
