Consumer Description

WHEN TRYING TO USE KEYLESS ACCESS SYSTEM WHEN LOCKING THE 2005 ACURA RL I PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR HANDLE TO LOCK THE DOORS BUT IT IS NOT LOCKING THE CAR. THE REMOTE IS IN MY POCKET. THE KEYLESS ACCESS DOES LET ME UNLOCK THE DOOR WITH THE PULL ON THE DRIVER DOOR HANDLE. THE PROBLEM IS WHEN TRYING TO LOCK THE VEHICLE WITH THE DRIVER DOOR HANDLE IT WILL NOT LOCK THE CAR. SO NOW I HAVE TO JUST USE THE KEYFOB TO LOCK THE CAR WITH PRESSING THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE REMOTE. I HAVE READ AND DONE ALL REQUIRED TO DO WHAT THE MANUAL SAYS BUT IT IS STILL NOT WORKING. I HAVE JUST READ A SERVICE BULLETIN SAYING THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR HANDLES THAT WEATHER LIKE RAIN OR MOISTURE HAS GOTTEN INSIDE AND DAMAGED THE DOOR HANDLE SENSORS. *TR
