One problem related to power door locks not working has been reported for the 1999 BMW 328. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Gm5 control module door lock failure. Intermittent failure, usually in hot or humid weather, causes door unlocking to fail using either the key fob or the console button. When this occurs, the doors cannot be unlocked from the inside. Only the driver door can be unlocked using the physical key inserted from the outside of the door! there are entire websites, message boards, and even micro-businesses dedicated to fixing this flaw in the gm5 control module, but I feel this is also a very dangerous safety issue as passengers cannot exit the vehicle when this malfunction occurs. In an emergency, the only option will be to roll down the windows and crawl out or break a window if the window controls also fail, as some people also report.
