    The front passenger door lock automatically unlocks while the vehicle is moving and can't be relocked. Also, the other door locks click for no reason. *tr

This month the lock has failed in the front locks....if u try to unlock it ...it locks back so fast you cannot get the door opened....that is a safety hazard as whoever is sitting in the passenger side cannot get out...i am having to spend another 3 to 4 hundred dollars to fix…

    In december, my rear passenger side door would not unlock. I tried to manually unlock the door and the lock would not budge. My baby was in his rear-facing carseat on the rear passenger side of the car so i had to open the rear driver side door to get my baby out through that door. The problem has continued to escalate to the point that as of today (06/11/13), the rear passenger side door will no longer lock and the…

    Door locks normally with key fob or at designated speed of 8mph. However left rear and right front slowly unlock after about 3 seconds. Repeated key fob use is to no avail. Using the door lock switch or the actual door lock mechanism will still not allow door to remain locked. Highly unsafe as there is no way to keep door locked and prevent door from opening. Vehicle is now easily hijackable or can be broken into…

    My 2007 honda cr-v door locks (passenger side) started making a whining noise when it was less than 2 years old, but my son noticed in november that the doors would immediately unlock after they are locked, even when the vehicle is moving. There have been several times when my hatch has gotten stuck in the locked position and i could not open it. I would not feel safe having a small child in my car when the doors…

    Passenger side door automatic lock malfunction. At times would not open/ at times would not lock. When i use the master control (on the drivers side door) or the key fob, the passenger side lock continually clicks. Also the locks continue to click open and locked as i drive (especially when i speed up from a stop.) i have heard that many other people have the same type of problems. *tr

    Last fall, the door lock on the front passenger door on my 2007 honda crv began to lock back after unlocking it to allow my son into the car. It locks back within 2-3 seconds of unlocking it with the keyless entry. Since this time, the other 3 doors operate in the same manner. The doors lock back within seconds after unlocking. On monday, july 15, my car did not start. With the keys in the ignition, i got out of the…

    On my 2007 crv the doors, if not already locked, lock automatically when the car reaches about 10 to 20 mph. In mid august 2012 i began to hear the clicking of the door locking each time i started after being stopped at a light or having slowed down. I realized that the passenger rear door was not locking. I brought it to be fixed and was told it was the actuator. The cost to repair was $230.00. Two months later, it…

    Failure of the door lock actuator. The rear driver's-side door continually unlocks, even despite the automatic lock feature. With small children in the back, i am unable to ensure their safety with an unlocked door while driving, or even while parked. Also, our belongings are at risk of theft because that door is constantly unlocked, even when locked by hand. Despite our efforts, the door unlocks itself immediately…

    Problem started with driver-side rear locks. Would not always lock, constantly tried to relock itself while driving, and made rattling sound. Problem has spread to all doors. Driver side door will not lock at all. Passenger-side rear lock will not unlock. Hatch will not open. Other doors relock themselves immediately so you have less than one second to open door. Using the key itself makes no difference. *tr

    The locks are acting weird. The car locks automatically when the door is closed. As soon as i get in the doors lock and the same when i get out. When i need to get in the car i need to use the key fob and it unlocks for just a second the locks again quickly. Very annoying! I fear the locks will malfunction more and more as time passes. Today the alarm went on and i had to start the car and put it in reverse and back…
