2017 cargo doors wont stay open well
Have a new cargo van and when you open the cargo doors both of them tend to come back in 4-6 inches
they open pretty much perpendicular but then immediately close back 4-6 inches
the “latch” thing holds them there but it is not a very wide space to get tools etc in and out of
are most people removing that latch thing and having the doors open all the way out? That would be way more usable
and if so are you adding some kind of rubber stops/ bumpers?
thanks for any help

I'm guessing you're talking about the side doors. You can pull the stop to allow it to open further. At about halfway open, you can pull the stop. This does allow free movement of the doors at this point. I use a bungie to hold it open, but I do have running boards to hook that to. It is an issue. But a minor one.
