IT CANNOT BE LOCKED MANUALLY AND DOES NOT REMAIN LOCKED IF THE BUTTON IS MANUALLY HELD IN PLACE. I HAVE READ VARIOUS COMPLAINTS OF THE DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM BECOMING FAULTY. WHY WON'T HONDA TAKE OWNERSHIP AND DO A RECALL! I AM UNFAIRLY HAVING TO SPEND ALMOST $250 TO GET THE ACTUATOR REPLACED. DOOR LOCKS SHOULD COME WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY JUST LIKE SEAT BELTS! THIS IS CAUSING A THEFT HAZARD AS WELL AS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY CHILD RIDING IN THE BACK SEAT! *TR
