    Door will not unlock on front passenger side. This is not a child safety lock issue. Seems like a common problem after a review of the internet. In a crash or fire passenger would have to crawl to the other side of the car or through a window to get out. Responders would have no way to open the door from the outside. *tr

Nothing worked, i had to crawl over the console and exit by the passenger door. Definitely a safety issue, since it could happen in an emergency. *tr
