Consumer Description

THE ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS ON MY 2007 JETTA FAILED TO LOCK OR UNLOCK USING THE ELECTRIC LOCK BUTTONS IN THE DOORS OR BY USING THE REMOTE. ONLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR RESPONDS TO ANY LOCK ACTION. THE DRIVER'S DOOR ONLY LOCKS AND UNLOCKS WITH THE KEY IN THE LOCK. THIS WAS NOT DUE TO DEAD BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE CONTROL. THIS IS A COMMONLY REPORTED PROBLEM (AS OBSERVED BY ONLINE REPORTS BY OTHER OWNERS) AND COULD LEAD TO SAFETY CONCERNS IF A PERSON IS UNABLE TO UNLOCK A DOOR TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, OR PERSONAL PROPERTY CONCERNS IF A PERSON CANNOT LOCK THEIR DOOR. *TR
