Hey all. I own a 2008 Acura TL Type S 6MT and am having an issue with my passenger side door lock. About a month ago I took the car to the dealership to have the door lock actuator replaced. Repair was succesful until yesterday. Now the door is completely locked shut. The key fob won't unlock the door nor can I manually pull up the lock pin from the inside because it's stuck. Any ideas? I'd rather not bring it back to the stealership as I'm sure they won't fix it free of charge (although I'm convinced it's related to their install).

Any ideas? I'm considering just taking a pair of plyers to the door lock pin and forcing it to come up, but I'm sure something inside would break and then I'll have a bigger mess on my hands.

All feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

 

Take it back to the dealer

 

^ This, lol.

 

Take it back to dealer. They fixed it but it was more of a patch than a fix. Tell them to fix it right. You should not have to pay.

 

Check your paperwork, as I thought dealers warrantied work with factory parts for a year.

If so, have the dealership revisit the repair.

 

take it back to dealership because you did the repair a month ago and they should fix it for free especially when you took it to them to fix the module on that side.

if they dont fix it raise hell and talk to the manager
