I was going to mention that I washed my sav one evening, drove it home (2 blocks) and it sat overnight in below zero temperature. The next day the doors worked with no problem but my brakes were frozen to the wheels and I had to floor the gas pedal to break the ice to get the sav moving. So if there was a common door lock flaw, it should have shown up that night.

One thing I noticed though different on your vehicle is that you had the locking features & keys programmed to have the doors lock at 5 mph. Maybe it's a software glich that needs to be reprogrammed again. It seems whenever I've had a problem, a software update seems to have resolved the situation. I avoided the keys and locking program for now as other sav owners on earlier posts last summer seemed to believe they were having strange things happen after they had this feature activated. Just a thought IMHO.
