THE ISSUE IS WITH BOTH FRONT DOORS INTERMITTENTLY NOT OPENING WITH THE DOUBLE DOOR PULL WHEN STOPPED AND PARKED AFTER THE AUTO LOCKING SPEED ENGAGED THE DOOR LOCKS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE IN THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGERS BEING TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR IN AN EMERGENCY. MY RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE BROUGHT ME TO THIS FORUM THAT SEEMS TO BEST HIT ON MY ISSUE: HTTPS://WWW.BIMMERFEST.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=674994 THREAD # 9. 04-11-2013, 12:14 PM [XXX] IS OFFLINE REGISTERED USER LOCATION: ARIZONA JOIN DATE: FEB 2013 POSTS: 9 MEIN AUTO: 2010 535I VIEW MY GARAGE SMILE YES, THE DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER FIRST TRIED TO FEND ME OFF SAYING THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY ISSUE. AFTER I INSISTED ON SAFETY RISK, THEY CONTACTED BMW AND FOUND THAT IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY. ONCE THEY REPLACED IT, I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM AGAIN. HOPE THIS HELPS.
