2009 Nissan Maxima

I HAVE AN AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING. IT IS CURRENTLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ONLY BUT FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ONLINE, I EXPECT TO BEGIN HAPPENING ON OTHER DOORS AS THE ACTUATOR'S BEGIN FAILING. NORMALLY THIS MAY BE A SIMPLE ANNOYANCE BUT SINCE THIS VEHICLE USES A KEY FOB IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO QUICKLY UNLOCK THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND THERE IS NO WAY TO QUICKLY SECURE THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE EITHER OF THESE SITUATIONS COULD PUT THE SOMEONE AT RISK AND IN HARMS WAY, ESPECIALLY IF THE DRIVER IS RELYING ON THE SAFETY MECHANISM TO ENSURE CHILDREN DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY OPEN A DOOR THAT HAS NOT BEEN PROPERLY SECURED WHILE TRAVELING. THE LOCKING AND UNLOCKING OF A VEHICLE IS INTENDED AND DESIGNED TO KEEP THE VEHICLE, IT'S CONTENTS, AND IT'S OCCUPANTS SAFE AND IS HEAVILY RELIED ON IN TODAY'S ENVIRONMENT. I HAVE SEEN ESTIMATES TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE FROM OVER $500 TO ALMOST $2,000, A FAIRLY EXPENSE REPAIR FOR THE VEHICLE OWNER BUT A FAIRLY INEXPENSIVE COST FOR THE MANUFACTURER. ALTHOUGH THIS MAY SEEM LIKE A STRETCH TO CALL THIS A SAFETY ISSUE BUT FOR WHAT OTHER PURPOSE ARE DOOR LOCKS INTENDED? IT IS MY REQUEST THAT THE MANUFACTURER ISSUE A RECALL FOR FAULTY DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR'S. *TR
