| Description of the problem | Initially driver side lock actuator would not unlock door via remote. This last approximately 10-days. The problem resolved it self. Approximately 2-weeks later the front passenger door exhibited the same problem. The passenger door lock actuator problem lasted approximately 7-days. This has been randomly happening over the past 6-8 months. Within the past 5-days the drivers door began acting up. This time the lock would unlock using the remote but then would not lock using the remote. I would have to cycle the lock system 4 to 5 times before all four doors would lock using remote. At some times three of the four doors would lock except the drivers door. I then tried to recycle the lock system. At times after recycling the lock system i would still have to lock drivers door manually. I took vehicle to toyota dealer in my hometown, the diagnosis was that both front door lock actuators are bad and i would need to spend $1,200 to fix. I was told the lock actuators are not covered under any manufactures recall. The lock actuator issue has always happened when vehicle is in a parked condition, engine off. It has happened in all kinds of weather. |
