1 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 09/01/2012

The rear passenger doors periodically lock and will not unlock nor open either by remote, interior console button, nor by interior door handles. Passengers must enter and exist via the front seat climbing to, or from, the back. The problem is unexpected and sporadic, may last a few hours or a few days, have had problem on my car since purchased two years ago. Problem relates to computer controlled locking system and not child controls, once the rear passenger doors are locked (which may happen automatically), they will not unlock and interior door latch handles will also not allow opening of doors, for practical purposes same as having rear doors welded shut with no way to open. Other owners report same problem as common on owner forums. Problem is dangerous in case of an accident since rear passengers can not open doors to exit vehicle.
