2007 HONDA CR-V Structurebody Problems

There was a safety recall for the rear arm control and excessive rust, Honda said they fixed it back in 2018… out of no where my car lost control and caused me to crash, I brought the car back to Honda and the rear arm bracket broke off due to excessive rust however Honda states it was repaired and there is nothing they can do, they won’t even look at the vehicle.

I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction regarding the handling of the recall for my 2007 Honda CR-V due to frame corrosion. During the recall service, only a bracket was installed under the wheel well, addressing a single area despite extensive rust present throughout the frame and underbody. I believe the vehicle should have been considered for a buyback rather than a limited repair. Recently, my vehicle failed its safety inspection due to a rust hole in the frame, making it unsafe to drive and only suitable for scrap. When I contacted Honda for further assistance, I was informed that only recall-related issues would be addressed, and no additional support was offered. The presence of severe rust and a compromised frame poses significant safety risks, including: •Increased likelihood of structural failure in the event of a collision, which could result in serious injury or death. •Reduced effectiveness of critical...

On 07/21/2023, I took my car to the dealership for an evaluation related to a recall on the Rear Frame Brace. The inspection revealed that my car was unsafe to drive, and I was informed that I could not take it off the dealership premises. Since then, I have been trying to reach an agreeable solution with America Honda Motor- Honda Recall, but they have not responded. I have also tried to get assistance from the Attorney General of my state but to no avail. The local Honda dealership still has possession of my auto, and this issue remains unresolved as of 02/11/2024.

My catalytic converter was stolen when my car was parked. Honda owners has been targeted for its catalytic converters, and there are numerous reports of Honda’s cats being stolen. Honda has a major defect where it makes it easier for thieves to steal the cat in minutes. There are 3 major flaws with the product. 1) Hondas don’t automatically come with a cat converter steel shield, cage, or other protector to make them harder to steal. 2) Hondas don’t install their cat in the engine compartment like other car manufacturers to deter theft. 3) Honda’s cat contains valuable materials, which is why they are targeted. Other car brands tend to have less valuable catalysts so thieves are not incentivized to steal them. Because there are many cats being stolen, there is a shortage to replace them, and car owners have to wait weeks to months to get their cat replaced....

While performing maintenance on the car, I found that the left (drivers) rear mounting bracket which is a part of the frame/body, and hold the right rear trailing arm - holding the rear axle was severely rusted and cracking apart from corrosion. The right (passenger) bracket showed no rust damage. This problem has been reported by others, and Canada has found the same issues and issued a recall for this car/vin group. Although this car is 15 years old, this thick 3/8" heavy metal bracket should not have disintegrated like this even with the salt used on the highways, and is shown with absolutely no issue with the right (passenger side)bracket. Upon taking it to the dealer, there was nothing they could do, nor could they get the "fix" being used in Canada or any other information as to how they are correcting this problem. Suggestion is to buy a...

While driving vehicle on 07/01/2021 the right rear trailing arm disconnected from the right rear frame rail due to corrosion. Transport Canada issued a recall (#2019-025) for 83,953 Honda CR-V's sold new in Canada for this problem. My Honda CR-V was manufactured at the same plant as those recalled in Canada. The reason for the recall in Canada was because these vehicles were driven on roads treated with deicing materials, much the same as vehicles driven in Illinois. This vehicle has not been inspected by American Honda. This is a clear safety issue due to the nature of the suspension becoming detached with no notice.

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET, THE RIGHT REAR SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM CAME LOOSE FROM THE FRAME. THE RIGHT WHEEL TIRE SUBSEQUENTLY BECAME LODGED AGAINST THE REAR OF THE WHEEL WELL AT AN ANGLE. I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. POLICE ARRIVED TO BLOCK OFF THE NEAREST LANE SO I COULD SAFELY BE TOWED FROM THE SCENE, AS THE CAR WAS UNDRIVABLE. I AM FORTUNATE THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN AT HIGH SPEED, AS I DO NOT BELIEVE I WOULD HAVE SAFELY BEEN ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTROL ARM CAME LOOSE DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST ON THE FRAME. THE AREA AROUND THE MOUNTING LOCATION FOR THE ARM IS TORN AWAY FROM THE FRAME, THE NUTS AND BOLTS ARE STILL ATTACHED TO THE FRAGMENTS OF FRAME THEY WERE ORIGINALLY MOUNTED TO. THIS MODEL YEAR CRV IS UNDER RECALL...

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HIS DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 30 MPH, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE LOWER CONTROL ARM DETACH FROM THE CHASSIS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THE CHASSIS WAS RUSTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRABLE. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

1) THE CAR FAILS TO START OCCASIONALLY. I ALREADY HAD REPAIR SHOP CHANGED TO NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. 2) THE DRIVER'S FRONT DOOR HANDLE (OUTSIDE) STICKS AND DO NOT GO BACK, AFTER IT'S BEEN PULLED. THIS CAUSES THE CAR'S DOORS LOCKS TO LOCK AND UNLOCK DURING DRIVING, STOPS AND GOS.

VEHICLE FAILED STATE INSPECTION DUE TO EXCESSIVE CORROSION IN THE REAR FRAME AND THE RISK OF THE REAR-TRAILING SEPARATING FROM THE FRAME AND LIKELIHOOD OF AN ENSUING ACCIDENT. THE INSPECTION STATION STRONGLY RECOMMENDED AGAINST REPAIR DUE TO THE STRESS POINT, AND INTEGRITY OF THE SURROUNDING STRUCTURES. I OPENED CASE # 10157114 WITH AMERICAN HONDA, AND THEY HAVE THE DOCUMENTATION OF THE ISSUE ALONG WITH PICTURES TAKEN BY AN AUTHORIZED HONDA DEALER. THIS SAME ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED IN 2019 BY TRANSPORT CANADA RECALL # 2019025. HONDA CANADA'S STATEMENT REGARDING THE RECALL: "EXCESSIVE CORROSION TO THE REAR FRAME MAY RESULT IN FRAME STIFFENER PERFORATION AND, IN EXTREME CASES, CAUSE THE REAR-TRAILING ARM TO SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE'S FRAME STRUCTURE. A SEPARATED REAR-TRAILING ARM MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH." AMERICAN HONDA (USA) REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE THE ISSUE, AND INSISTS THIS IS ONLY A...

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, JUST COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED MY CAR BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, AND SAW MY BACK DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE AT A VERY STRANGE ANGLE. I CALLED THE TOW TRUCK. WE BOTH LOOKED UNDER THE CAR, AND IT APPEARED TO BE THAT THE ARM CAME DISLODGED FROM THE FRAME ON THAT SIDE DUE TO EXTENSIVE CORROSION. WHEN COMING HOME I GOOGLED THE ISSUE, AND SAW CANADA HAD A SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM, IN HUMID AREAS THAT USE SALT FOR DE-ICING. COASTAL NEW ENGLAND WOULD ALSO FALL UNDER THESE CONDITIONS, AS WOULD MANY OTHER NORTHERN AREAS OF THE UNITED STATES. THIS SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE RECALLED HERE AS WELL. IF IT HAD HAPPENED 5 MINUTES SOONER, I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED AFTER BEING ACTIVATED FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OR PASSENGER SIDE. THIS POSES A SAFETY PROBLEM SHOULD THE FRONT PASSENGER NEED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY LOCKED, AFTER MANUALLY "LOCKING" THE VEHICLE AND ESPECIALLY AFTER THE VEHICLES AUTOMATIC LOCKING SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED. THIS POSES A SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD A CHILD, OR A PASSENGER IF ANY AGE CAN OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE AND DOOR LOCKS SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA WITH NO EXPIRATION.

DOOR LOCKS KEEP GOING OUT. VEHICLE WON'T LOCK, ALARM DOESN'T WORK, SOMEONE CAN JUMP IN MY CAR AT A STOP LIGHT. I'M A WIDOW ALONE. THIS THE 3RD DOOR THE LOCKS BROKE IN 3 YRS. COST SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS EACH TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCKS FUNCTIONED INDEPENDENTLY. IN ADDITION, THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AND TRUNK DID NOT UNLOCK. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE MADE ABNORMAL NOISES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ACTUATORS IN THE TRUNK, REAR DRIVER, AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOORS WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY REPLACED THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 171,000.

DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS FOR REAR DOORS ARE DEFECTIVE. UNABLE TO LOCK REAR DOORS.

IF THE CAR BATTERY IS DEAD, THE REAR LIFT GATE CANNOT BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE NOR THE INSIDE WITHOUT TOOLS (I JUST FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS AN UNLABELED COVER INSIDE THE LIFT GATE THAT HIDES THE INSIDE EMERGENCY MANUAL RELEASE; BUT IT CANNOT BE REMOVED WITHOUT A TOOL) . THIS MEANS THAT THE SPARE TIRE AND TIRE CHANGING TOOLS ARE GOING TO BE UNREACHABLE. MOREOVER, IF THE SIDE DOORS ARE DAMAGED IN ANY WAY SO THAT THE REAR LIFT GATE IS THE ONLY REASONABLE WAY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, IT CANNOT BE USED. I CONTACTED THE HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER (800.999.1009) AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN ANSWER INASMUCH AS THE OWNER'S MANUAL WAS THEIR ONLY RESOURCE. THEY REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY OTHER RESOURCE OR ESCALATE MY CONCERN.

DEAR NHTSA, I OWN 2007 CRV EX-L . I'M EXPERIENCING A PECULIAR PROBLEM IN MY CRV SOMETIMES THE DOOR GETS LOCKED AUTOMATICALLY OR WHEN WE TRY TO OPEN IT THROUGH REMOTE KEYS, DOOR GETS LOCKS IMMEDIATELY WITH IN A SECOND. ONE TIME MY KID WAS INSIDE AND ACCIDENTALLY I CLOSED THE DOOR AND IT GOT LOCKED. I WAS REALLY SCARED BUT LUCKILY AFTER FEW TRIES, IT GOT OPENED. I DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT, IF THIS HAPPENS IN A CRUCIAL TIME WHEN WE WANT TO OPEN THE DOOR AND ALL ARE INSIDE THE CAR.WHEN I SAID THIS TO MY FRIEND WHO OWNS 2008 CRV, HE SAID THAT HE IS ALSO HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND HE REFERRED ANOTHER FRIEND WHO HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. SO I THINK WE NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE TO AVOID ANY TERRIBLE SITUATION IN FUTURE. IF NEEDED I CAN SHARE TWO OF MY FRIENDS...

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR KEPT LOCKING ON ITS OWN AUTOMATICALLY AND IMMEDIATELY EVERY TIME I UNLOCKED IT. AFTER A FEW MONTHS, REAR RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR MAKES LOUD SOUND EVERY TIME I LOCK THE DOORS, SCARED A KID IN THE VEHICLE AS IT HAPPENED UNEXPECTEDLY. DEALERS DIDN'T MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT SAFETY ISSUES, REPLACED THE FIRST ONE FOR $250 PLUS LABOR CHARGE AND HAVE ASKED ME TO GET THE CAR FOR SERVICING AGAIN TO SEE IF THE SECOND ONE NEEDS TO BE CHANGED AS WELL. I HAVE HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE SINCE BUYING THE CAR. I LOOKED UP ONLINE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT MULTIPLE CASES WITH ACTUATOR PROBLEMS WITH CRV MODELS BUT HONDA NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE OR RECALL TO FIX DEFECTIVE ACTUATORS DESPITE BEING AWARE OF THE DEFECTS. CLASS ACTION SUITS HAVE BEEN FILED BY PEOPLE AS IT IS CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES BUT HONDA STILL NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, NOT SURE WHAT YOU...

REAR RIGHT DOOR LOCKS ITSELF APPROXIMATELY 1/2 SECOND AFTER UNLOCKING, WHETHER VIA ELECTRIC SWITCH OR BY MANUALLY PUSHING THE UNLOCK LEVER. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS EGRESS IS ONLY POSSIBLE BY A PRECISELY-TIMED, TWO-STEP PROCESS: UNLOCK THE DOOR AND RAPIDLY ACTUATE THE DOOR HANDLE. THE COMPONENT DOES NOT FAIL-SAFE; IT FAILS INTO AN UNSAFE MODE. *TR

MY 2007 HONDA CR-V, PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER UNLOCK BY THE MAIN LOCK/UNLOCK SWITCH, KEY FOB OR THE MANUAL TAB IN THE DOOR. WE HAVE TO BE VERY PRECISE IN UNLOCKING AND PULLING THE DOOR AT THE SAME TIME. EVEN A SECOND DELAY COULD BRING THE BOOR BACK IN TO UNLOCK POSITION. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IN CASE OF FIRE OR ACCIDENT AS THE PASSENGER CAN NOT UNLOCK AND ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE. PLEASE LOOK IN TO IT. THANKS *TR

THE FIRST SIGN OF A DOOR LOCKING PROBLEM STARTED WITH MY REAR HATCH NOT OPENING. AS A SENIOR FEMALE I HAD TO STRUGGLE TO GET 10 40LB BAGS OF SMELLY WET FERTILIZER OVER THE PASSENGER SEATS AND OUT A PASSENGER DOOR. THE NEXT DAY I FOUND THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT LOCK AND THE LOCKS KEEP CLICKING AS YOU DRIVE. TWO HONDA DEALERS WE CALLED OFFER NOTHING BUT AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. MY RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET TELLS ME AFTER DRIVERS PAY HONDA MANY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THIS REPAIR THE PROBLEM RETURNS ON ANOTHER DOOR OR THE ACTUATOR THEY REPLACE FAILS AGAIN.THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR BOTH A PASSENGER FALLING OUT OR A CRIMINAL GETTING IN AND ATTACKING SOMEONE OR STEALING THE CAR AND OR ITS CONTENTS. WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE WHEN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE AT RISK.THIS IS NOT A POTENTIAL PROBLEM, IT IS AN EXISTING...

THE CAR WAS IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, DRIVER HAD FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL. THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE AND WOULD NOT STOP EVEN WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL. VEHICLE STRUCK TWO CARS AND ENDED UP SMASHING INTO THE REAR OF A STOPPED 18 WHEELER. *TR

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...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CRV. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK FAILED AND WOULD NOT OPEN MANUALLY OR WITH THE KEY FOB.

THE FRONT 2 DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK AT RANDOM TIMES. THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT ALLOW MY DAUGHTER TO GET OUT OF CAR OR ALLOW ME TO OPEN MANUALLY FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE IS A VERY BIG SAFETY HAZARD. HONDA DEALERSHIP WANTS $400.00 PER DOOR TO FIX. I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING UNTIL SOMEONE DIES FROM THIS TO RECALL. *TR

I OWN A 2007 HONDA CRV WHOSE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER AND REAR PASSENGER DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK CONSTANTLY AS I DRIVE. WHEN I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE I CANNOT LOCK MY FRONT PASSENGER DOOR SO THAT LOCK REMAINS UNLOCKED AT ALL TIMES. IN ADDITION, THERE HAVE BEEN OCCURRENCES WHERE I PARK AND TURN OFF MY CAR BUT I CANNOT UNLOCK MY FRONT DRIVER DOOR SO I NEED TO SLIDE ACROSS TO THE PASSENGER SIDE IN ORDER TO EXIT MY CAR. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN BOTH DANGEROUS AND ANNOYING. THE COST TO REPAIR EACH DOOR IS OUT OF MY REACH SO I HAVE HAD TO ENDURE. *TR

DRIVERS DOOR KEY WONT OPEN DOOR. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR LOCK MOVES ITSELF INTO UNLOCK POSITION EITHER IMMEDIATELY AFTER LOCKING, OR WITHIN A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING. THE ACTUATOR WILL LOCK, BUT THERE IS CLEARLY A SPRING FORCE THAT GRADUALLY UNLOCKS THE DOOR DURING DRIVING, OR EVEN WHEN STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM AS THE DOORS WOULD CONTINUALLY TRY TO LOCK IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. EVENTUALLY, I FOUND WHICH DOOR, WHEN I OPENED IT FROM THE OUTSIDE WHEN ALL OTHERS WERE LOCKED. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CHILD SAFETY SWITCH IS ENGAGED OR NOT. THE DOOR WILL STILL UNLOCK ITSELF. *TR

DOOR LOCKS BEGAN TO LOCK AND UNLOCK BY THEMSELVES REPEATEDLY AS I DROVE, UNLOCKING @ AROUND 9 MPH NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I RELOCKED. IF I RELOCKED THEM THEY WOULD OPEN AT AN INTERSECTION STOP (VERY UNSAFE ALSO!), OR JUST OPEN & CLOSE WHILE I WAS DRIVING - ALL KINDS OF NOISY DOOR-LOCKING & UNLOCKING. I WAS UNABLE TO KEEP THE REAR DOOR LOCKED AT ALL WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR, LEAVING IT UNLOCKED AT NIGHT OR IF I LEFT THE CARE TO GO SOMEWHERE. I WAS ON A TRIP WITH LUGGAGE, COMPUTER, GPS, ETC. IN THE CAR AND IT WAS UNLOCKED! WHEN I GOT BACK HOME TO RHODE ISLAND AND BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY FOUND THE LOCK ACTUATORS ON THE FRONT & REAR PASSENGER DOORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $524. THEY STATED THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT IT WAS NOT CAUSE...

WHEN CHECKING WASHER FLUID, I NOTICED THE FLUID WAS NOT VISIBLE, SO I ADDED THE PROPER FLUID. AS NOTHING HAPPENED, I LOOKED UNDER CAR, & THE WASHER SOLUTION WAS RUNNING OUT ON THE CONCRETE FLOOR, AS I POURED IT INTO JUG. UPON FURTHER EXAMINATION, I FOUND PIECES OF THE TUBING THAT HAD BEEN CHEWED ON, AND IN SOME AREAS, CHEWED COMPLETELY THROUGH. ONE OF THESE AREAS I WAS ABLE TO ACCESS VIA A PLASTIC DOOR, ABOUT 12 INCHES WIDE, BY ABOUT 2 INCHES IN HEIGHT, LOCATED UNDER THE HOOD, IN THE CENTER OF THE FIREWALL, JUST BELOW THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. I FOUND PIECES OF TUBING IN THIS AREA, ALSO. LOOKING FURTHER, I FOUND INSULATION THAT MICE HAD MOVED FROM AN UNKNOWN AREA, TO MAKE THEIR NEST. WITH SOME DIFFICULTY, I FINALLY RECEIVED A CALL FROM A HONDA REP, IN CALIFORNIA. AFTER ABOUT 25 MINUTES OF DISCUSSION, IN A PEACEFUL MANNER,...

VEHICLE BEGAN RESETTING DOOR LOCKS WHENEVER VEHICLE ACCELERATED THROUGH 7 OR 8 MPH FROM STOP. AFTER AWHILE, DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND BACK DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AND INTERMITTENTLY THE DRIVER DOOR COULD NOT BE MANUALLY LOCKED (HEAVY RESISTANCE WHEN TRYING TO FLIP LATCH). ON A LESS FREQUENT BASIS, THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR WOULD NOT AUTO OR MANUALLY LOCK. FOR LAST SEVERAL MONTHS THE DOOR LOCK SOLENOIDS FIRE LIKE A MACHINE GUN WHENEVER THE DOORS ARE MANUALLY OR AUTOMATICALLY LOCKED. SOME TIMES THEY ALL LOCK, OTHER TIMES ONE OR MORE OF THE DOORS WON'T. TOLERATED FOR MANY MONTHS AS DEALER WOULDN'T FIX UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH ONLY 1000 MILES AND A FEW DAYS PAST 12MO/36K COVERAGE AND DIDN'T WANT TO PAY DEALER ESTIMATED FIX AT UP TO 800 DOLLARS. NOW STARTING TO PICK UP GRANDCHILDREN FOR AFTER SCHOOL CARE AND NEED TO FIX. SEEMS THIS PROBLEM HAS ENOUGH COMPLAINTS...
