Description of the problem | I was parked with the car off and all doors unlocked and i was unable to open the front driver side door of my 2013 volkswagen passat from the inside or outside. It sounded as if the lock on the front driver door would not unlock. All other doors opened normally. I now have to enter and exit the driver seat from the front passenger side seat. This seems like a serious safety concern if i ever had to exit my vehicle quickly in an emergency situation. |
