Description of the problem | Some time ago, the power locks stopped locking or unlocking. When it gets hot and the vehicle is in the sun for some time, the doors do not want to open. Some times it could be all the doors or just some. We had to climb over the back seats to unlock the doors because the lift gate is the only one that got unlocked. Some times we need to wait for a while pressing the remote hoping to get lucky and one door will unlock. Not even the key works to open the driver side door. It has got to the point that now we need to leave one door unlocked so that we can enter the car and hope that the alarm will deter any body other than us trying to get in. This has become a serious security problem. Searching the internet, they say that the door actuators are the culprits to this issue, but there is many nissan/infinity owners having the same problem. All of the actuators going at the same time? Hmmmm and at about $400 a pop per door? Double hmmmm!!! I just hope that nissan/infinity, do the right thing and find out the real solution to this problem. Other wise, the will be loosing a lot of costumers. Thanks.. |
