THE THREE PASSENGER DOORS ON MY 4 DOOR CAR WILL NOT UNLOCK USING EITHER THE KEY FOB OR THE CENTER CONSOLE DOOR LOCK BUTTON. I ONLY HAVE A MANUAL DOOR LOCK KEY HOLE ON MY DRIVER DOOR. SO THE ONLY DOOR THAT WILL UNLOCK AND OPEN IS THE DRIVER DOOR. THIS IS BECAUSE OF A FAULTY GM5 MODULE. ITS A VERY REGULAR THING ON BMWS AND I CANT BELIEVE IT HASNT BEEN RECALLED ALREADY. IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY, AN ACCIDENT OR CAR GOES INTO A BODY OF WATER, THE PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE WILL BE STUCK AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT. EMERGENCY SERVICES WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE DOORS OPEN IF NEED BE WITHOUT USING THE JAWS OF LIFE TO CUT THEM OFF WHEN THEY SHOULD SIMPLY BE ABLE TO PULL THE DOOR HANDLES. THE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK AT ALL. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING. READING ONLINE, THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE WITH BMWS AND THE DEALERSHIP CHARGES $750+ TO FIX IT. LUCKILY, THERE IS SOMEONE ONLINE THAT WILL REPAIR THE MODULES FOR A FRACTION OF THAT BUT WITH THIS BEING AN ON GOING ISSUE WITH MOST MODEL BMWS, THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT. I AM SENDING MINE OFF TO GET REPAIRED BECAUSE I WANT MY DOOR LOCKS OPERATING PROPERLY JUST IN CASE THERE IS AN EMERGENCY. CAN WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS THOUGH?

I'VE REPLACED THE WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY CAR SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE MATERIAL BEING CHEAP. THE GEARS WEAR OUT AND/OR BREAK APART. EACH TIME IT'S BETWEEN $150 AND $300 TO REPAIR. THE WINDOW STOPS HALF-WAY DOWN AND CAN'T BE MOVED. THIS PRESENTS ISSUES WITH SAFETY DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER AND MAKES IT VERY EASY TO GET INTO THE CAR TO TAKE VALUABLES AND POTENTIALLY STEAL THE VEHICLE. *TR
