| Description of the problem | Driver door and rear door on driver side do not lock/unlock consistently with key fob nor do they lock/unlock with power lock button. I have to manually lock and unlock both doors most of the time. The previous owner said they replaced these a few years back under warranty shortly after purchasing vehicle. Obviously there is a design flaw or mechanical issue causing this to happen. Numerous people have reported the same issue. I have to manually lock and unlock my doors when i leave the vehicle. Passenger side doors appear to work fine all the time. The cost is close to $300 per door to correct and i believe only a 30 day warranty. So it doesn't appear to be a permanent resolution. |
