| Description of the problem | As i was driving in town my back left door lock suddenly unlocked itself, without my pushing any locking button. This continued sporadically. However, when i took it to the dealership nothing happened, so they could do nothing. Later the other back door had the same problem. That may have been in november of 2012, i honestly don't remember. When my husband took the car to the dealership this time, they quoted a price for repair which my husband felt was too high, so he did not have anything done. Within the past two months (maybe april of 2013), the drivers' side door also came down with the same unlocking problem. Last tuesday afternoon, june 26, 2013, the simple clicking sound which accompanied the unlocking action was replaced with a loud grinding sound. Generally this happens when the car is moving from a standing still situation to moving forward. I saw this morning that it happened at 10 mph, but sometimes it just happens several times consecutively. The car cannot be locked, so the door could be opened while in motion, or it could be entered by anyone at any time. I know mine is not the only car of this model to have this problem. |
