LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
MY DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR HAS BEGUN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS THE SECOND DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ON MY VEHICLE TO FAIL, THE FIRST WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THE GM MECHANIC TOLD ME THEY HAVE REPLACED NUMEROUS ACTUATORS. THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS ALL DOORS WHEN DRIVEN AND UNLOCKS WHEN STOPPED HOWEVER THE FAULTY ACTUATOR DOES NOT ALWAYS LOCK OR UNLOCK. THESE ACTUATORS HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF BEING DEFECTIVE AND GM IS AWARE OF IT BUT REFUSES TO RECALL THE FAULTY ACTUATOR EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE LITERALLY REPLACED THOUSANDS OF THESE UNITS. THESE FAULTY ACTUATORS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT A DOOR COULD FAIL TO UNLOCK EFFECTIVELY TRAPPING THE OCCUPANTS. THE FAULTY ACTUATORS ARE ALSO A SECURITY CONCERN BECAUSE THEY COULD FAIL TO SECURE THE VEHICLE ALLOWING ANYONE ACCESS TO IT'S CONTENTS. *TR
