Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS TRAVELING OUT OF TOWN MY 2006 BMW 325I HAD A MAJOR LOCKING FAILURE. I COULD NOT UNLOCK THE DOORS OF THE CAR EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. THIS TO ME IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE ALL OTHER DOORS WHERE NOT OPERABLE, THUS NO ONE COULD SAFELY GET OUT OF THE CAR IF WE HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, THE SAFETY UNLOCK WOULD NOT HAVE WORKED. *TR
