| Description of the problem | My car first began automatically locking constantly every time i released the brake pedal and began to accelerate with the gas pedal. A few weeks later i noticed that the passenger side front and rear doors were no longer locking. I tried to lock them manually but they automatically unlock. My car is still continuing to automatically lock every time i switch from the brake to gas pedal only now it makes a very loud, startling buzz sound from the front passenger door with each lock. The issues seem to fluctuate between not locking at all, locking constantly, and buzzing loudly with each lock each time i drive the car. It also seems that the child locks are activating themselves as you cannot open either passenger door from the inside of the car. This is becoming a grave safety concern being that i cannot lock my doors properly. I became very frustrated to find that this seems to be quite a common problem with cr-v's made between 2007-2011 and honda has not recalled them. Fixing this issue through the dealer is very costly and does not promise to correct the issue. Honda campaigns to "start something special". I have yet to see what it is that they have started that is so "special" when it comes to repairing their own mistakes to benefit the safety and convenience of their loyal customers. |
