Description of the problem	The automatic door locks will lock independently of the fob or door button. When using the fob the doors will unlock and then lock back instantly. I have to play a 'catch me if you can' game, just to get into my car. I can not exit the car to get gas without it locking on it's own. First time i turned it in for service the problem 'could not be duplicated'. Turned in second time and they are replacing the door lock mechanism. Waiting on parts.
