That the interior door panels had separated from the door frame causing the locking mechanisms to malfunction and the doors would not remain secured. The failure was present on the drive and passenger front door at this time. I have had this car for 5 years and it started the 2nd year that I have owned it. It is getting worse.

interior door panel is separating from the door its self where the door and the panel meets at the top where the window is. This was first noticed on the front passenger door about 3 years ago and is now on all of the doors to some extent. This is causing an opening and gap where fingers could get caught or foreign objects could enter the interior of the door causing possible failure or malfunction of either or both of the doors or windows. This was addressed with the dealer who tried to say it was temperature related (as this is in the south west) and not covered under the extended warranty however, I have seen many posts from all over the country where several years and makes of dodge vehicles have similar issues.
