Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING (REGARDLESS OF SPEED), THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY UNLOCK AND LOCK ITSELF. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS IN RAPID SUCCESSION 2-3 TIMES'IN OTHER INSTANCES, IT'LL HAPPEN JUST ONCE....WHICH IS TO SAY THEY'LL UNLOCK ONLY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I WILL LOCK THE DOOR AGAIN, AND IT'LL UNLOCK AGAIN. IT HAPPENS TO BOTH THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVEN'T NOTICED THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED AND THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO CONSISTENCY TO IT. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS RANDOMLY AND I JUST RECENTLY THOUGHT TO REPORT IT.
