| Description of the problem | Key operated electronic door locks ceased to function. Can reset by removing iod fuse, but problem seems to come back in a few days or few weeks time.. Is a huge convience problem manually unlocking passenger doors by reaching to back seat and when you want to load some groceries into rear hatch.. Also could be safety issue, especially for someone with disabilities.... Based on the number of complaints i see, if this can be solved with the dealer reprogramming the computer, this should be a definite safety defect and done at no cost to the owner.. |
