What owners wrote

The central locking system failed and only the driver door could be open from the inside. My wife was traveling with my newborn baby in the back seat and could not get outside the car, because the remaining (three) doors could not be opened from the inside neither from the car's outside handles. I reach for my newborn baby boy from the driver's seat and my wife had to exit through the rear window, because she could not make it through the center console.

Reported at 31,557 miles, March 2008

Central locking failure causing only the drivers side door to be operable. The passenger and rear doors cannot be opened from the inside or outside. In the event of fire passengers could not let themselves out or emergency personnel would not be able to open the 3 doors from the outside.
