Doors won't lock, open or latch by model year
What owners say
My 2005 cr-v awd, four door locks failed within two months, first the passenger side door, then the rear passenger side, then the driver side, and then the tail door lock, I took it to a local dealer, and was told all the actuators were not working. I had two of them replaced, they are expensive. I was told there is a recall on the 2007 models, I think they should start an investigation on 2005 models also,
Circa november 2011 the driver's door actuator on my 2005 honda cr/v failed. Subsequently two additional door lock actuators failed. The dealer wants circa $300 to repair each of these actuators. I believe these are design flaws and that honda should repair/replace these actuators on an extended/goodwill warranty basis.
Drivers side door locks: the door lock on the drivers side will not lock or unlock the drivers door unless the key is used on the drivers side. Trying to unlock/lock the doors with the remote will work for all the doors except the drivers. Trying to unlock/lock the doors with the key will work for all the doors except the drivers unless you are using the key on the drivers side.
The door locks failed to lock unless a key was used which would only work on the front doors. The key would no longer unlock the doors unless it was manually. The rear back door would not lock under any circumstances. This jeopardized the safety of my car, and myself. I went to apple tree honda where I purchased the car. They did not let me know that this had been a recurrent problem on other cars. They charged me $587.50 to replace all the locks.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda cr-v. The contact stated that the front and rear passenger, and the rear driver's side door locks failed when engaged with the automatic key fob. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the door attenuator needed to be replaced for the affected doors. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000 and the current mileage was 137,000.
The indicator light on the instrument panel indicates the rear hatch is open. The light blinks intermittently even though the glass hatch and the rear cargo door are closed. At times the faulty sensor indicates the door is not closed not allowing remote door lock. My local honda dealer has repeatedly tried (and failed) to fix this problem.
