Latches/locks/linkage problem

I have a 2009 GMC Sierra 2500 with 39,200 miles. My door lock actuator quit working, so my door no longer automatically locks and unlocks which I consider to be a safety hazard. I noted on-line that this seems to be a very common problem in GMC trucks, tahoes, and suburbans - and I even have friends and family members that have had the very same problem with their gm trucks. Because this is so very common, and to me is a safety issue, it seems like gm should be addressing this. I inquired with the dealer, and the cost for a single door lock is well over $200. Based on what I've been reading, I can expect the remaining locks to go out over time. I respectfully request that NHTSA look into this matter as I believe it is affecting many others and is a safety hazard.
