My front passenger side door will not stay locked. Each time I lock it, all the other doors stay locked except this door. I can not manually lock it, therefore my car is now subject to vandalism or theft. I am a single female and this terrifies me that when I am sitting at a traffic light at light someone could easily attack me or try to steal my car. I contacted Honda and they said that there is absolutely nothing they can do.

The driver side door locks have faulty actuator pumps. The doors will lock and unlock at inappropriate times and the passenger side door lock will initially lock and then unlock while the car is in motion. We're getting the door locks fixed out of pocket, but this level of failure seems unreasonable for the age and condition of this car. Honda needs to assist with repairs and/or help owners pay for the fix.

The power switches on doors are easy to fail. The actuator failed and the door is getting 'locked' itself which could be an issue if child is left in the car with key. I got the first incident of this issue on my passenger - right door about 6 months ago and now got the same issue on door in driver seat.

CR-V

My door locks (all of them) would not stay unlocked longer than 2-3 seconds when I want to leave the vehicle. I have carefully coordinate pressing the unlock button on my key with actually opening the door. If I am not quick enough, I must repeat the action. This very clearly looks like a safety issue. And by now Honda knows this is not an isolated case. Will it require a minimum number of deaths or injuries because the occupant can't get out of the vehicle in time in case of an accident or fire, etc. ?? the cost for the replacement of the actuators should not be borne by the owners. ( up to 4 @ $400 each).

My grandson went to get out of the passenger front side of car. It would not unlock. He had to climb over to the driver seat to get out. The next day I went to open the trunk and it was lock. I do a lot of picking up of my grandchildren and I'm afraid that they will get stuck in the event of an accident. What a shame to have to worry about this and the cost I will have to incur.

From August 2013, right front door started to lock by itself right after I unlock it. Several weeks later, the right rear door started to keep locking itself with very loud noise when the speed of car reaches 20~30 miles/hour. It was very annoying and I fixed the car, which cost me over $300. However, now the left rear door started to keep locking whenever the car reaches to the speed of 20~30 miles/hour.

For the last 2 years my 2007 CR-V has had issues with electric door-lock operation 1)the passenger door does not unlock. Unlocking all doors via drivers side or key fob momentarily opens the passenger lock " it then automatically locks again in 2-4 seconds. This is a safety issue as the passenger cannot get out in the event of an emergency. Door handle operation does not over-ride the lock " and the 2-4 second window electronically unlocking is difficult to synchronize handle operation in the best of circumstance. 2)in addition, all door locks continuously lock"lock?.lock when driving forward @ approximately 8-10km/hour. I am the original owner. There are many similar complaints " I see ~ 105 at safercar.gov.
