Then the door is relocked electrically and can't be opened from neither the inside nor outside.

Now the rear doors are starting to making a strange sound when locking or unlocking the doors. This is the sound the came before the locks actually started to malfunction on the front door. Why isn't honda being held responsible for all these actuator problems? *tr

I have the 2008 cr-v. About 2 months ago, all my door locks started automatically locking and unlocking themselves at around 9 or 10 miles per hour. I'm afraid to let my kids ride in the back seat now. What if one of them decided to hang on to the door handle and it opened accidentally while we were moving? I hope honda gets a handle of this problem and issues a recall to fix the problem. *tr

My 2008 honda cr-v has started locking the doors by itself. I shut the front door before i opened the back door to get my 11 month old baby out of the car and the doors locked before i was able to open the back door. It was over 100 deg f, so i had to call the fire department to break a window to get my child out of the car. *tr

The passenger side rear door started to unlock after locking the vehicle. This will happen either while driving or when remote locking the car. It seems the lock mechanism slowing opens on its own. I just took a look at the door, but i don't see any physical damage to the latch or handles. I have read on line many others have had this same problem and honda is not taking any ownership of this failure of the door…

Once i began driving my 2008 honda crv and the doors lock, they begin to unlock and slowly re-lock. Very often it continues to unlock and re-lock for most of the trip before remaining locked or unlocked. I am extremely concerned about safety since i have a young child who rides in the back seat and the doors unlock while i am driving. I am also worried the doors will unlock once my vehicle is parked which can cause…

Door locking system failure. First rear driver's side door lock went out-will not unlock with alarm key, nor with the inner lock button system. Must be manually unlocked and locked. This caused the rear hatch to not open. Will only open once i have manually unlocked rear driver's side door. Now, the passenger door does not stay locked--whether i lock it with the key, button, or manually. It slow opens back to the…
