Weirdest thing happen....

Hey guys...

How's it going? Today was a warm day in Toronto ---> 5 degrees! ;) Not soo warm, but it hasn't been like this in couple of weeks.

Anyway, to make a long story short, i was driving along, going across a interesection and suddenly i hear the weirdest noise from my car. It sounded as if someone had rear ended me for a second, but that wasn't the case...

Suddenly, i notice on my dash that one of my doors is open and my dome light came on! I check my passenger door and it turns out that my passenger door is opened. :confused: :confused: :eek: :wtf:

This morning, i opened my passenger door just to put my bag in, and i am 150% sure i closed it completey. On my way to school, i locked the door ( i always lock my doors) and just for some strange reason the passenger door popped open as i was driving along at about 60km/h on my way home.

I never opened that door during the day. It was just that one time this morning. When i mean the door popped open, i mean that when you don't close the door properly. Not opened wide open. (bad english, don't know how else to explain):eek:

Anyways, i have no idea how this could happen...maybe someone could give me a clue as to how this happened??
 
just look on the inside of your doors an the part that it closes on. Usually there is like a hook type latch on the car, and then on the door there is like a claw type thing. if the claw is locked, i believe this is what child safety does, then the door won't close all the way. I'd suggest also just check all the other components against a door that you know works, because those things have a tendancy to break off. Its really annoying when youre driving along and it says your door is open. On my old accord i finally just duct-taped all of them down so it never said the door was open. Good luck with it though, keep us posted.
 
I never knew there's a child lock on the 'passenger' side door?
:confused:
What does the child lock have to do with the 'popping open' while driving anyway? The door should never pop open.
 
Of course the door should never open unless opened with the handle. If the child safety lock was stuck in the lock position or jammed, it could block the path for the lock to engage.
 
that has happened to me one too... the front passenger door just slipped ajar while I was on the freeway 70+mph .... big wind sound.... but it was closed completely before that.

I guess i'm not the only one that this has happened to.
That's exactly what i mean by popped open. It 'slipped ajar'.
But i can't figure out how this could have happened? I'm positive that i closed the door shut. Even with the lock on, how can it slip open? WEIRD!

timrock101 - i didn't mean to be offense/harsh in anyway. I know you were trying to help. :cool:
 
I think your car is haunted.

Hang 4 bunches of garlic from the mirror and wash the car with holy water.

If that doesn't work shoot the car with a silver bullet. No wait, that's for warewolves.

Uh, get a preist to bless eash corner of the car. That's what they do if your house is haunted in Portugal.

Good luck!
 
i think i should put my car up for sale and get a Rx-8!.
how about it guys? What do you think i can get for my car? I've got only 1900km on it!
hahaha j/k!.

i still can't think of any reasons why it might do that? :confused:
