| Description of the problem | Failure of one or more door locks to respond to electric lock button or intelligent key. Intermittent at first, but then two doors finally ceased responding. Replacement of actuator required. Research conducted online indicates that malfunction of doorlocks within the first 5 years of a nissan vehicle's life is common. In addition, it was discovered that a local dealership maintains an inventory of replacement actuators for altimas. Fortunately i haven't required immediate response of the door locks to protect my family in an emergency, however, it is not out of the realm of possibilities. Therefore, i have been replacing actuators in each door as they fail. |
