    Occasionally the drivers door will not unlock using the fob or the button on the door handle. The 3 other doors unlock but not the drivers door. You have to go in the passenger door and manually open the drivers door. Anyone had this problem and how do you fix it?
    Thanks

    Hey! That’s a frustrating issue. I’ve had a similar problem with my ATS. It sounds like it could be a problem with the door lock actuator or a wiring issue in the door. Sometimes the wiring harness can get pinched or worn, causing intermittent issues like this. Another possibility is the key fob battery being weak, though it’s less likely if the other doors are working fine. I ended up replacing the door lock actuator, and that solved the problem for me. If you’re handy, you could try checking the wiring yourself, but otherwise, a visit to the mechanic might be in order.

    It sounds like an issue with the driver’s door lock actuator. It might be failing, which is why the other doors unlock but not the driver’s door. You may need to replace the actuator to fix the problem.
