    Defaulting locking door system. Doors keep on locking while driving or/and not locking all doors while parked. I have already replaced latch assembly once this year and now broken again. This locking while driving has been an ongoing problem for years. It's very bothersome not to be able to have all doors locked while parked.

The rear driver's side door lock will not stay locked, after manually "locking" the vehicle and especially after the vehicles automatic locking system is activated. This poses a safety issue should a…

    The right rear passenger door locking mechanism unlocks itself after locking with driver's master control or key control. This allows the door to be unsecured when vehicle is moving causing safety issue. Honda sees this as warranty issue not safety issue.

    Both passenger side door locks are malfunctioning. They make a very loud noise when attempting to lock/unlock. More importantly, they will only stay unlocked for a brief moment before moving back to the locked position. Manually maneuvering the lock is next to impossible, which creates a big safety hazard of the vehicle potentially locking passengers inside with no means of opening the doors. *tr
