Ion 4-cyl

  • 119,180 miles
I just bought a 2003 Saturn Ion 2 and the door locks "all of them" lock and unlock on their own. When I get out of the car and time passes by, "I don't know how much time has to pass between that triggers the doors to unlock but each time I go back to the car all doors have unlocked themselves..... " ". I believe this problem can possibly turn into a deadly issue regarding the life of a consumer and or others " " in the event of an accident who knows if the doors will unlock or open ? I believe that the doors may do just the opposite that the doors may remain locked preventing anyone from being able to get out of the vehicle in the event of fire< accident< or an other emergency.
