| Description of the problem | Door locks began to lock and unlock by themselves repeatedly as i drove, unlocking @ around 9 mph no matter how many times i relocked. If i relocked them they would open at an intersection stop (very unsafe also!), or just open & close while i was driving - all kinds of noisy door-locking & unlocking. I was unable to keep the rear door locked at all when i stopped the car, leaving it unlocked at night or if i left the care to go somewhere. I was on a trip with luggage, computer, gps, etc. In the car and it was unlocked! When i got back home to rhode island and brought it to the dealership they found the lock actuators on the front & rear passenger doors needed to be replaced at a cost of $524. They stated they didn't know what happened but it was not cause by anything i did, which made me even more uncomfortable because then it might happen again! I felt i had to pay to have the service completed because i felt so unsafe with an unlocked auto, both on the road when driving and also overnight or when parked. I have just submitted this information, service invoice, and a copy of my proof of payment to honda in torrance, ca, only because i saw a similar complaint on wpri-tv in providence - which made me realize i was not at all alone with this issue. |
