Hey all,
I've been having problems with my driver's side door locking mechanism over the past few weeks. Many times, when it's cold in the morning, the door won't unlock. I hear the solenoids in all the other doors go off, but the driver's side door is silent. Even using the key in the keyhole won't make it budge. I had to climb through the passenger side a few times now.
I called my dealer and they didn't need much convincing at all. They said "oh yeah we've had a few of those in this week" because of this issue. They said the locking unit is a sealed unit and will need to be replaced. So I'm making an appointment now (under warranty).
So, has anyone else had this problem? Is there anything I should know before dropping it off? I know door panels can be difficult to remove without destroying those plastic tabs.
