Consumer Description

REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL ONLY LOCK/UNLOCK MANUALLY FROM THE INSIDE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE PROBLEM IS A FAILED DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. IT WILL NOT LOCK/UNLOCK WITH POWER LOCK BUTTON OR KEY FOB AND THERE IS NO KEYHOLE EXCEPT ON DRIVERS DOOR. THIS IS MY SECOND GMC VEHICLE THAT HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AND I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED OR GMC HAS NOT BEEN FORCED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WOULDN'T YOU CONSIDER A DOOR THAT DOES NOT LOCK/UNLOCK THE INTENDED WAY A SAFETY ISSUE? *TR
