| Description of the problem | Door locks actuate up and down while vehicle is in motion. Door locks unlock while vehicle is in motion. Door locks actuate up and down while vehicle is not running. These issues are safety concerns as the doors unlock while the vehicle is moving. I have two small children and this is unacceptable, it has been documented hundreds of times on line. Two door locks have failed completely and will not work using power door lock button or keyless remote. This is also a theft concern as at any time of day the doors could unlock rendering the vehicle open. Occasionally the power doors do not work. Power rear vent window passenger side does not work any longer. Using the power window buttons cause the locks to cycle up and down. |
