NHTSA Complaint #10820176 — 2006 SCION XB

THE DOOR LOCKS FAILED TO OPERATE. I WAS TRAPPED INSIDE AND COULD NOT OPEN THE DOORS. THE KEY WAS ALSO PREVENTED FROM UNLOCKING THE DOORS. AFTER CONSIDERABLE EFFORT I WAS ABLE TO UNLOCK A REAR DOOR AND EXIT THERE. LATER I COULD NEITHER LOCK OR UNLOCK ANY OF THE DOORS. THE CAR WAS PARKED. IT DID NOT MATTER IF THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING OR NOT OR IF THE "KEY BOB" OR DOOR LOCK SWITCH OR MANUALLY PULLING/PUSHING THE LOCK LEVER; NOTHING WOULD ALTER THE LOCKED STATUS. GRATEFUL THERE WAS NOT AN EMERGENCY SUCH AS A FIRE.
