vehicle failed to signal on left hand turn

vehicle was delivered without the driver door cable properly installed, resulting no manual way to exit the vehicle in the event of an emergency/ power failure.

door mechanisms do not disengage if something becomes trapped between the handle and the door when auto-locking. Hands and fingers can become pinched or trapped, posing a risk of injury, particularly to children.
