Description of the problem	Electric door lock system recall: our 2008 honda crv literally locked us out. We were yard saling in a nearby neighborhood. We parked on the street, and locked the vehicle. Upon returning to the vehicle, it would not unlock with the fob. I tried it several times with faint clicking sounds. The key also failed to unlock the drivers door. Our cell phone and keys to the house were in the locked vehicle . It was a saturday afternoon and we were locked out of our vehicle and stranded. We were fortunate in that our neighbor and a friend were yard saling in the same area and gave us a ride home and we were able to gain entrance to our house via an open window. We were also able to get a hold of the mechanic(not the dealership!!) the mechanic fixed one failed door actuator and the other door actuators were also probably involved{??). He suggested going to the dealership for a diagnostic. The diagnostic revealed a total of three actuators gone bad!!! The dealership would be glad to "fix" the problem for $350 per actuator --- $270 for parts and $780 for labor.. It turns out the parts are predominantly plastic and appear made not to last. The picture could have been a lot different. The day before we were using the same vehicle 45 to 60 minutes from home and no nearby contacts. We would have been still stranded and even more stressed!!! We bought our honda crv because honda supposedly had a better than average service record , quality of parts, and safety record.
