    Latches/Locks/Linkages

    On december 5, 2009, i could not get out of my vehicle through the front doors because i couldn't unlock the front doors locks (manually or electronically). I had to crawl and get out of the car through the rear door. Good thing this is a 4 door vehicle. My concern is that this could have been serious if the whole system shut down. This defect causes the doors to be inoperable. Now i am afraid to drive the vehicle…

    The lock cylinders on both front doors have malfunctioned. The passenger side (which i rarely use) will no longer unlock; the driver side will no longer lock. I have never used the outside lock to lock the door so didn't even know the problem until the mechanic told me. $450 to fix both locks but i need to be able to get in the car. *tr
