| When the power door lock fuse is blown, passenger cannot exit or enter the car manually. you can't open the door using the inside or outside door handle. the car would lock you in. only the driver side door can be open using the inside door handle. i have to let the passengers in my car climb over the driver seat to get out. this is a serious problem because if the driver door is jamb or block for any reason then you cannot open any other door to get out. it gets worse since bmw put an under power fuse for the door lock which cause the fuse to blown often. | |||

| I was unable to unlock the driver's side door. i had to slide over to the passenger side door. there is a bmw sib#: 51-19-07. i cannot believe there has not been a recall given the fact of the possibility of the driver or a passenger being trapped inside the car. i have saved both door locks that malfunctioned. *tr | |||
