File date	27/08/09
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The car doors at times do not unlock. It is very intermittent. A key can be used to open the driver's door but a couple of times even the door key has not worked. The most serious issue is that i have been locked inside the car and unable to open any of the doors, including the driver's door, with the main lock control or even by trying to open the door with the inside door handle. I have had to have passengers crawl out of the window to exit the car a few times. There are times when the key works to get in but i cannot get the other doors open even by attempting to use the inside door handle. This is a scary situation to be in.
