Details
What's wrong: The power door lock remote control actuator unlatches the door in response to input from the remote transmitter. Excessive grease in the actuator could cause a slow return of the activation lever to the proper latching position.
Why it matters: If the activation lever has not returned to the proper latching position by the time the sliding door closes, the door will not latch.
The fix: Dealers will replace the power door lock remote control assembly.
