NHTSA Complaint #10560026 — 2007 HONDA CR-V

WE HAVE A 2007 HONDA CRV AND HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH OUR LOCKS. THEY WILL CLICK NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO...EVERYTIME A STOP IS MADE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR THEY RECLICK. IT CAN BE A STOP SIGN, STOP LIGHT, OR JUST A BRIEF STOP AND WE WILL HEAR A CLICKING SOUND LIKE THEY ARE RELOCKING. WE HAVE OFTEN NOTICED THAT WHEN SOMEONE TRIES TO ENTER THE DRIVER DOOR OR FRONT PASSENGER DOOR THE UNLOCK MECHANISM ON THE KEY OR DRIVER DOOR HAS TO BE HIT AT THE EXACT SAME TIME FOR A PERSON TO BE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. ALTHOUGH IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO HEAR THESE CLICKS OVER AND OVER AND TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH TRYING TO GET INTO THE CAR LIKE THIS, THERE IS AN EVEN BIGGER ISSUE OF SAFETY. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR (BEHIND THE DRIVER'S SEAT) WILL UNLOCK ITSELF AFTER THE CAR IS IN MOTION. YOU CAN HEAR THE REAR DOOR CLICK TO UNLOCK AND IT WILL SHOW ORANGE. WHAT IS EVEN MORE ALARMING IS THAT THE REAR DOOR CAN BE OPENED WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION EVEN AFTER THE DOORS HAVE BEEN MANUALLY LOCKED BY THE DRIVER PUSHING THE LOCK BUTTON! THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AS MY CHILDREN AGES 7 AND 9 RIDE IN THE BACKSEAT OF OUR CRV. *TR
