Filed this same complaint several times since 1995 to chevy. chevy never returned my answer why astros never have door ajar light installed at factory. i see their ventures and transports do have this feature. if the door ajar light went on, i'll pull over and check the doors to be sure they're shut. i feel this feature is part of safety and should be added at the factory. 2000 astro model still does not have this light.*ak |
