| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My 323's door locks are experiencing occasional locking problems. the key will not remotely open the door locks. i can insert the key into the driver's door and open the driver's door only. pushing the door unlock button inside the car does nothing (but you can hear a clicking sound). the passenger doors would open only by pulling on the interior levers twice. but sometimes that doesn't work which can be a potential safety problem. i can still open the trunk with the key remote and lock all the doors without any problems. i've noticed the problem happening more frequently during warmer days. i've checked bulletins with other bmw owners have same problem but with no solution. i've called the na bmw support number and they have never heard of this problem before.*ak |
