# Service bulletin M510120

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

FRONT DOORS DO NOT LATCH IN COLD WEATHER: At ambient temperatures below freezing one or both front doors may not open when attempting to enter. In some cases after opening they may not correctly latch. A missing seal on the inner Bowden release cable may allow water to enter the cable sheathing and freeze.
