| Power door lock actuators operate intermittently. there has been several instances having the rear child door lock engaged and we could not open the rear doors from the outside because the actuators failed. children had to exit out the front by climbing over the front seats. while at a parking garage a large vehicle parked close to the passenger side of our car and could not open doors to re-enter. again, intermittent operation of power door lock actuators , both front and rear driver side door locks failed. we had to enter the vehicle through the rear tailgate/hatch. took vehicle in for service and lock were operating at that time and manufacturer recommended replacing the door lock actuators. still to this day the locks operate intermittently, and now have 115,000 miles. *tr | |||

| I have a 2003 infinity fx35, for some time i have been having trouble with all the door actuators they sometime work and some not, now they don't work at all. it started with the drivers door and like 2 months later the rest of the doors including the trunk. i had it check with an electromechanical and he told me is the door actuators that i have to replace all of them. i have been reading that this happens to all infinity fx35 models and some others. i really think this is a very serious safety issue and something most be done about it.... infinity should take care of this since is a very common malfunction in they're cars. 1 actuator going bad is one thing but all of them is another. this is a very high safety issue that needs to be take care off. | |||

| All four door locks as well as the hatch lock ceased to work properly (i.e. would not lock or unlock when the automatic lock button was pushed.) told that it was an actuater problem, and that all would need to be replaced (at great expense). this is an obvious safety issue. first, with children in the car, doors could not be locked or unlocked quickly in the case of an emergency. also, when driving alone, security of the car was likewise compromised. also troubling was that the sound of doors locking would still be heard, but the doors were not actually locked--thus leading drivers to think their car was secure when in fact it was not. this is a prevalent problem with these suv's and should be considered for a component recall. | |||
