My 2003 honda odyssey's automatic sliding door will not close completely. I have to bump it with my hip or close it manually. Then the van still thinks it's open and will beep and beep while i'm driving. It concerns me as my 5 month old baby is right next to that door and i'm concerned as to whether he's safe or not. I worry about the door staying closed. *jb
