Description of the problem	The doors would not unlock after stopping & putting in park. I took it to the dealer & they replaced the actuator. It worked o. K. For a while & took it back & they replaced the actuator again. It continues to not unlock occasionally. I feel this could be a safety issue if the vehicle was involved in an accident or if vehicle were to catch on fire. I have looked on the internet regarding this problem and found several incidents on this topic but nothing from gm. I think gm should look into this problem and fix it before someone pays with their life. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
