| Description of the problem | I have been having issues with the locks on my 2008 honda crv. It started on the passenger side of my car. It initially would not stay locked. I contacted the dealer and they advised no recalls. After about 6 months it started working again. Then about another 6 months it quit again. (weather related?). Now that lock stays locked all the time. We are not able to unlock it... Not even manually. About a year later the rear passenger lock wasn't locking correctly. I contacted the dealer again and they couldn't help me. Now the rear drivers side lock does not work properly. It sounds like a machine gun going off everytime the car hits the 10 mph. I have contacted the dealer and advised no recalls. I was quoted $800. 00 to have them repaired. (lock actuators?) i cant believe this is happening only to my car. By the locks not working is a safety issue for myself and kids. I have teenage daughters and a granddaughter. It they encounter any danger and are not able to lock or unlock the doors is a major safety issue. Now my granddaughter wont ride in the car because it sounds like a machine gun. I have not had any issues with the driver side lock. I can't really submit any pictures because they will not show the issues. I bought this car brand new and know the history. This is my 2nd honda crv and i loved them until now. I cant believe i am the only one having this issue. |
