| Description of the problem | Driver side door handle/lock not operating - very very hard to get door handle/lock to unlock and allow me to exit car thru driver side door. Even fob would not work properly to unlock door to allow exit. This could be a very serious safety factor in the event of a collision especially if it resulted in a fire. This happened for the fist time on 2/17/17 when i arrived at work and has continued since. |
