Consumer Description

DEFECTIVE ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK - 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA THE ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK, WHETHER ACTUATED FROM THE BUTTON ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR OR BY THE KEY FOB, DOES NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOOR(S) RELIABLY. THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY PROBLEM. MY WIFE DID NOT EVEN KNOW FOR SEVERAL MONTHS THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT LOCKING WHEN SHE USED THE REMOTE KEY FOB. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED NOT ONLY IN A THEFT BUT ALSO A VEHICLE INTRUSION BY AN ASSAILANT. I WILL SUBMIT MY VEHICLE IDN LATER. *TR
