Consumer Description

I HAVE A FORD EXPLORER SPORT 1999, THE DOOR LOCKS WON'T UNLOCK WITH THE KEYS (BOTH SIDE DOORS, THE HATCH WORKS FINE) OR THE KEYPAD, WHEN THEY LOCK AFTER STARTING, THE DRIVERS DOOR WON'T UNLOCK WITH THE HANDLE OR THE UNLOCK BUTTON. IT DOES HOWEVER IF YOU HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON, PUSHING THE UNLOCK BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES WHILE PULLING UP ON THE LOCK - WHICH IS HARD TO GET A HOLD OF, OR THE HANDLE (FOR NOW) I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF I HAPPENED TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT, THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN IF NEEDED. *TR
