I purchased my 2011 Honda crv brand new from our local Honda dealership. I have been happy with it until last month. I began to notice that whenever I came to a stop or slowed down below 10 mph and then accelerated, my doors would make the locking sound even though they were already locked. It happens repeatedly as I slow down/stop and then accelerate. Then today (3/4/2014) the problem escalated. I came out of the grocery store and couldn't unlock the cargo door with my key fob. I noticed that the left passenger door didn't unlock as well. I pressed the button a few more times and they wouldn't unlock. The driver door, front passenger and right rear passenger doors did unlock. So then I pressed the unlock button on the driver door armrest but the cargo door and the left passenger door still didn't unlock. I had to put my groceries in through the right rear passenger door since the cargo door doesn't have a way to open manually from the inside, nor manually with a key from the outside. If this problem gets worse, this can pose a very serious safety problem. What if there's an emergency and your car doesn't unlock? I just did some research on the problem to see if it was something simple that could be fixed. A quick online search brought my attention to countless complaints of door lock failures on crv's. Seems this is an issue that's been going on for years (at least 2007-2011). I was shocked to find out Honda hasn't issued a recall. This is a widespread and serious problem! I called my Honda dealership to find out the approximate cost to replace the door lock actuators. This isn't a cheap fix! they would charge $180 labor for each door they would need to fix on top of the cost of each door lock actuator which ranges from $59 to $75 each, depending on which door the part is for. I would need 2, possibly 3, replaced so that would be about $500 to almost $750.
