| Description of the problem | My door locks are failing. I have had all the mechanisms that lock and unlock my doors replaced in 6/2014. I had the drivers door mechanism replaced a second time in 5/2015. Now, the driver door mechanism is failing. If it is locked, i cannot unlock; if it is unlocked, i cannot lock it via "electrical" function. Ie: key fob or door switch. This is a safety issue for occupants when needing to enter the vehicle if in unsafe areas. The inability to lock the doors when someone exits and leaves a love one inside creates an issue. We all tell our love ones, "lock the doors until i return" when we make a quick run into a store, etc. This happened to me and my wife just the other day. Scarry!!! |
