You know it is to bad that someone with some smarts on legal affairs would start or threaten a class action suit against Kawasaki about this. A door flying open in any vehicle is a major safety hazard and would be a recal in seconds. Is there a governing that looks into this type of thing and forces a company to correct an issue. If anyone has that info maybe we could all send in a complaint. It just may force Kawasaki to do the proper thing.

You could just fix it yourself.well i can say this, in 4 months and 295 miles on my 2025 Camo Hvac and HAULED to 3 different Kawasaki dealerships(about 375 miles hauled), i still have the DAMN issue with doors so these shops CAN'T fix it!
i might could but i also might fix it where couldn't be fixed, lol, if i could fix it myself, why can a autorized Kawasaki dealership not fix under WARRANTY? 3 of them hasn't?You could just fix it yourself.
The problem is the link between the outside door handle and the latch. All you have to do is make it a little bit longer by taking some of the two beds out a bit. It needs to be about a mm or 2 longer than it is.i might could but i also might fix it where couldn't be fixed, lol, if i could fix it myself, why can a autorized Kawasaki dealership not fix under WARRANTY? 3 of them hasn't?
Dealers aren't paid to fix problems. They are paid to change parts. The new parts are the same as the old parts in this case.
I did both of my doors in a little over an hour and that included figuring out the problem.
If you straighten out the link a bit and it doesn't work for some reason or it makes it worse you won't be able to tell you did anything as far as warranty.
If you want more info, let me know
