DOOR LOCKS:: 2014 CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT RESULTED IN SIX MONTH EXTENSION TO NOVEMBER 2015 FOR HONDA 2007 CRV REPAIR THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THE LOCK HAS A DESIGN FLAW THAT RESULTS IN THE DOORS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE UNLOCKED FROM THE INSIDE. IF YOU UNLOCK THE DOORS, IT AUTOMATICALLY RE-LOCKS. THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT IS FOR AN ADULT TO PUT THEIR THUMB ON THE MANUAL DOOR LATCH AND TRY TO BLOCK THE LATCH FROM LOCKING WHILE YOU TRY TO OPEN THE DOOR. THE PASSENGER LOCKS ON MY AFFECTED VEHICLE HAD VERY LITTLE USAGE WHILE DRIVER DOOR HAD HIGH USAGE. DRIVER DOOR WAS NOT AFFECTED SO THIS IS NOT A "WEAR" ISSUE. ALSO, LOCK SHOULD DEFAULT TO UNLOCKED IF FAILS. NOT LOCKED AS YOU CAN'T GET OF THE CAR. HONDA ISSUED SERVICE BULLETIN 14-083 AND 084 WHICH IDENTIFIES THE PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE AN INVOLUNTARY UNTIMED RECALL AS THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. A SECONDARY ISSUE IS LOCAL DEALER DID NOT FOLLOW THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT SAYS DRIVER DOOR LOCK TO BE REPLACED WHETHER WORKING OR NOT. OCEAN HONDA, SANTA CRUZ CA. DID NOT DO THAT WHEN I BROUGHT IN DUE TO HONDA NOTIFICATION.

ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO MY RIGHT-SIDE BACK PASSENGER'S DOOR WAS MAKING A LOUD NOISE WHEN THE CAR DOORS WERE TRYING TO LOCK WHILE I WAS DRIVING, OR WHEN I USED THE CAR REMOTE OR LOCK PANEL ON DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. COME TO FIND OUT THAT IT WAS THE ACTUATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. NOW, MY FRONT-PASSENGERS DOOR AND TRUNK DO NOT OPEN, HOWEVER, NO LOUD SOUNDS ARE HAPPENING EXCEPT FOR THE RIGHT-SIDE BACK PASSENGER'S DOOR. I THOUGHT I COULD HANDLE THE SOUND, BUT NOW THIS ISSUE HAS PROGRESSED AND IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE EVERY TIME I USE MY CAR. MOST RECENTLY, ON 2/25/17 MY DAUGHTER AND I CAME HOME AND PARKED ALONG THE STREET FROM OUTSIDE OF MY HOME. I HAD MY DAUGHTER IN THE VEHICLE STRAPPED IN HER CAR SEAT, UPON EXITING THE DRIVERS SIDE I CLOSED THE DOOR AND THE CAR LOCKED. I TRIED USING THE REMOTE TO UNLOCK THE DOORS THAT WERE STILL "FUNCTIONING" (DRIVERS SIDE DOOR & LEFT-SIDE BACK PASSENGERS DOOR) WHICH DID NOT WORK! I HAD TO USE THE CAR ALARM TO WAKE UP MY DAUGHTER TO SEE IF SHE COULD UNBUCKLE HERSELF BUT UNFORTUNATELY, AFTER SHE GOT OUT OF HER SEAT SHE WAS UNSUCCESSFUL TRYING TO OPEN THE DOORS THEY WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE EITHER. I MUST HAVE TRIED THE REMOTE AND USING THE ACTUAL KEY IN THE DRIVERS DOOR FOR A GOOD 5 MINUTES WHICH FELT LIKE AN ETERNITY. THIS MATTER IS A HUGE MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT IS STILL NOT RESOLVED IN THE REPORTED ACTIVE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. WITH SOME HELP FROM A NEIGHBOR WE MANAGED TO GET THE DOOR OPEN TO GET MY DAUGHTER OUT. I'M TRULY DISAPPOINTED WITH HONDA AS I'VE NEVER HAD ISSUES WITH HONDA AS I FELT THAT HONDA IS EXCEPTIONALLY RELIABLE. AS OF YESTERDAY'S FIASCO INVOLVING MY DAUGHTER I WILL BE SEEKING OUT COUNSEL FROM A LITIGATOR ON THIS ISSUE SINCE IT SEEMS THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED, KNOWING THAT THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES TO PERSIST WHICH IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO HAVE YOUR OWN CHILDREN LOCKED INSIDE.

THE DOOR LOCKS STARTED MAKING A LOUD RACKET DRIVING AND STOPPING - WHEN YOU WERE DRIVING OVER 10 MPH LOCKS ARE SUPPOSED TO LOCK AUTOMATICALLY AND THEN WHEN YOU STOP AND PARK UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY. APPARENTLY THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT COVERED FRONT DRIVER ACTUATOR AND RIGHT AND LEFT REAR DOOR LOCKS. THIS EXTENSION WARRANTY EXPIRED NOVEMBER 2015. HOWDY HONDA DEALERSHIP HERE IN AUSTIN TEXAS WAS ABLE TO HAVE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE BACK DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS WILL NOT LOCK. THE NEW ACTUATOR WAS GOING OFF CONTINUOUS IN ATTEMPT TO LOCK THE BACK DOORS. I TOOK BACK TO HOWDY HONDA, THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPROGRAM MY KEY TO STOP IT FROM TRYING TO CONTINUOUSLY LOCK THE BACK DOORS AS IT WAS APPARENT THAT THE NEW ACTUATOR WOULD WEAR OUT RAPIDLY FROM DOING THIS.. IF I AM DRIVING AND STOP AT A LIGHT OR CROSSING, ANYONE CAN JUST OPEN THE BACK DOOR AND HOP INSIDE MY CAR AND CAR JACK ME. ALSO, WITH THESE DOORS NOT LOCKING I CANNOT SET THE ALARM. THIS AFFECTS MY INSURANCE, AS I HAVE CAR INSURANCE STATING I HAVE AN ALARM SYSTEM - WELL IF MY CAR IS VANDALIZED OR STOLEN IT WILL COME BACK TO MY PROBLEM AS I DID NOT SET THE ALARM - I CANNOT SET THE ALARM THE BACK DOORS DO NOT EVER LOCK. I EXPLAINED THE INSURANCE PROBLEM IF VANDALIZED OR STOLEN; I EXPLAINED THE SAFETY ISSUE OF BEING CAR JACKED OR SOMEONE OPENING THE BACK DOOR AT A STOP AND GRABBING ONE OF MY KIDS FROM THE BACK SEAT OR GETTING INTO THE CAR. THE COST QUOTED IS $552.00 TO REPAIR BACK DOOR LOCKS - THIS IS ALL CONNECTED TO THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR ACTUATOR THAT HAS BEEN REPLACED, BUT HAS NOW BEEN DISABLED BY HOWDY HONDA AS IT WAS GOING OFF AND ON CONTINUOUSLY TRYING TO LOCK BACK DOORS AND THAT WOULD WEAR OUT THE NEW ACTUATOR JUST INSTALLED 10/26/2016 UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

DIRECTION RELAY SWITCH IS ONLY AUDIBLE WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED AND AT IDLE. ROAD NOISE DAMPENS THE SOUND OF THE DIRECTION RELAY AT MOST SPEEDS AND ROAD CONDITIONS. MANUFACTURE DOES NOT OFFER AN OPTIONAL DIRECTION RELAY WHICH COULD INCREASE THE DECIBELS OF THE RELAY. WHEN SOUND OF DIRECTIONAL RELAY DOES NOT CANCEL AFTER A LESS THAN 90 DEGREE TURN THEN CONTINUED FLASHING OF THE EXTERIOR DIRECTIONAL LIGHTS HAS CAUSED NEAR MISSES WITH OTHER VEHICLES.

THE FRONT AND REAR LOCKS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE HAVE FAILED. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS LOCKED, THE PASSENGER SIDE LOCKS AUTOMATICALLY SWITCH TO THE UNLOCK POSITION, REGARDLESS OF THE VEHICLE BEING STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. EVEN AFTER LOCKING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR CAN BE OPENED BY PASSENGERS OR PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. THIS POSES A SERIOUS RISK FOR YOUNG PASSENGERS WHO MAY OPEN THE DOOR WHILE IN MOTION IF THE CHILD SAFETY LEVER IS NOT ACTIVATED. I HAVE ALREADY PAID THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE LOCK ACTUATOR, BUT AFTER THE FRONT LOCK ACTUATOR REPAIR, THE REAR LOCK ACTUATOR BROKE. IN 2015, HONDA ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE LOCKS, BUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS FROM THE ISSUE DATE OF THE LETTER. MY LOCK ACTUATORS BROKE SHORTLY AFTER THE END OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PERIOD. I ATTEMPTED TO HAVE HONDA REPAIR THE LOCKS AS PART OF THE CAMPAIGN AND THEY REFUSED. I AM REQUESTING THAT THE NHTSA INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE TO DETERMINE THAT THE DEFECTIVE LOCK ACTUATORS ARE A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL IS NECESSARY. PLEASE REFER TO CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS [70 FR 39966, JULY 12, 2005] 571.206 STANDARD NO. 206; DOOR LOCKS AND DOOR RETENTION COMPONENTS. -S4.1.3.2 SIDE REAR DOOR LOCKS. IN PASSENGER CARS AND MULTIPURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES, WHEN THE LOCKING MECHANISM IS ENGAGED BOTH THE OUTSIDE AND INSIDE DOOR HANDLES OR OTHER LATCH RELEASE CONTROLS SHALL BE INOPERATIVE.
