Description of the problem	I bought my car brand new in november 2007. It is a 2008 honda cr-v 5dr 2wd ex. A couple/few years back, the locks started acting up. It was always the same two, the front passenger door and the rear door. I would push the unlock button on my key, and the other 3 doors would unlock, but those 2 would not. I tried using the unlock/lock buttons on the driver's door, and after hitting the lock button first and then unlock several times, it would work and those 2 doors would eventually unlock. And then sometimes all of a sudden they would start unlocking again using the key. This has been an ongoing annoyance for the past 2-3 years. I can't remember the exact date or mileage when it first happened. Probably about a year ago, they finally stopped completely. They will not unlock at all using the key or the driver's door. The passenger one, of course, i can manually unlock from the inside if needed. But the rear i have absolutely no way of opening that door. Completely ridiculous!!! It has been a complete pain to not have that storage area. I have had to lower the back seats to put anything in there. It also caused me to incur damage to my car this year. I had a flat and needed the spare tire. Well, i had to climb through the doors into the back where my spare was, only to realize you couldn't get to the spare because the rear door was in the way. So i had to rip the back flap to get to the tire. So that will cost me money to fix. This is in addition to the dealer telling me each actuator will cost over $300 to get replaced. After researching trying to find this actuator part, i came across the lawsuit and many many others with this problem. Sounds like honda needs to recall this and pay for fixing their problem!!!
