The automatic locks do not work on all the doors. I've had these locks worked on, but they continue to not work. This is a safety issue, as the doors will not open at all. The driver's side rear door will not open when you try the auto-locks, and the lock cannot be manually pulled up, thus leaving the rear-seated occupant trapped in the car. This often times with the front passenger as well. It also happens with the rear hatch.
