CAR IS A BMW 325I. MODEL YEAR 2001. THE ELECTRICAL DOOR UNLOCK MECHANISM DOES NOT ALWAYS UNLOCK THE DOORS. IN PARTICULAR, THE BUTTON TO UNLOCK ALL DOORS WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR A NUMBER OF MONTHS NOW. I SUSPECT THAT IT IS RELATED TO A FAULTY GENERAL MODULE 5 UNIT IN THE CAR. ON RARE OCCASIONS UNLOCKING THE DOOR WILL NOT WORK WHEN PULLING THE DOOR LATCH WHEN THE ALL DOOR LOCK BUTTON IS NOT WORKING, LEADING TO DRIVER/PASSENGERS TRAPPED IN THE CAR. *TR

MY 2001 BMW 325I HAS A DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF MORE THAN 15 REPAIRS OF WINDOW REGULATORS. THE ORIGINAL BMW WINDOW REGULATORS LAST FOR A FEW MONTHS, AND FAIL ONE AFTER ANOTHER. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE FAILURE OCCURRED DURING A SEVERE RAIN STORM, CAUSING CONSIDERABLE DISRUPTION OF DRIVERS CONCENTRATION, AS WELL AS CAR FLOODING AND WATER DAMAGE. I BELIEVE IT IS A VEHICLE SAFETY ISSUE, WHICH WAS NEVER CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR
