The locks on my car will not open. Regardless of the wireless entry or manually opening with a key or even from the inside. This is a safety hazard because when attempting to unlock the doors, the door unlocks then locks. The doors will not open under any circumstances. This is a severe hazard as my children were locked in the car and I had to take necessary measures to get in the car through the trunk to get them out. Honda said there is no recall on this item and I find this unacceptable. I cannot afford to fix this and this is something that is dangerous and should be covered by honda to fix. Please help me so I can get into my car and drive safely without knowing ill be stuck in the car.

Doors won't lock, open or latch by model year
What owners say
2007 honda accord. Consumer writes in regards to rear doors latch issues. *smd the consumer stated the rear door would not close, despite the several times she tried to close it. She attempted to push the white piece of plastic in the same position as the door, but it would not budge. The door had to be tied with rope, in order for her to proceed home.
The trunk door won't stay open on a low slope surface or under slight wind on a flat surface. Door lock hit the head on multiple family members head causing bruises on head and headaches for months. I believe the root cause is that the trunk door spring is no strong enough to hold the door under normal use. Report the problem to honda in new vehicle survey in 2007, but no response from honda. File a complaint to honda on sept. 2011. Honda customer service denied the problem.
Multiple electrical difficulties vehicle has been at the dealership on 2 separate occasions due to sporadic working of the power door locks and keyless entry system. They still have not found the issue. It is worse when it is humid and/or rains. During the winter months of 2007/2008; the stereo's lcd went warped and the whole stereo had to be replaced. On memorial day 2008; the drivers side seat caught fire while I was sitting in it parked waiting on my children to come out of a theme park. My husband burned his hand trying to put out the fire; and was out of work for about 2-weeks due to the burn. The dealership and honda refused to take responsibility for this fire; which started inside the seat due to the electronic seats and/or heated leather seats, as determined by the insurance company appraiser. The seat had to be replaced, the electronic seat components, heated leather seat components, part of the center console, and the carpeting and floor mats. We got the car back on july 3. On monday, july 7; my husband took the car to have it inspected (at the dealership); since the state inspection was past due. They rejected the inspection stating that the electronic system is not recognizing the seat belts. They later changed their tune when I called them and are now trying to say it wasn't that it was the airbag wasn't hooked up; and they could fix it. I know they are lying, and they are trying to cover their tracks as this I am sure is just another electrical issue in my car. I am at my wits end on what to do with this car. I can't afford to trade it in, I have spent over $1000 on rental cars waiting for it to be repaired, and now this. Also, the power door locks still do not work.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 honda accord. While driving 25 MPH, the doors did not automatically lock. The dealer was unable to determine the cause of the failure and no repairs were made. The current and failure mileages were 710. Updated 01/02/08. *lj the consumer believed that automatic door locking once the vehicle is placed in drive, should be a feature that comes standard on all vehicles. Updated 12/12/07
2007 honda accord does not have door locks that lock automatically when the ignition is turned on. This is a very important safety feature that has been overlooked in this model.
