Yeah, I’ll eventually get the recall done…I get it. The parts ought to wear over time and not be an issue, but, now, the vin has an unfulfilled warranty on it if you don't.

Mine did not stick for six months and progressively started. It is fairly easy to “unstick” but if you miss it and don’t see the warning light, the door will fly open. I know from experience.I got the letter for the recall. I never had a problem with sticking door buttons. I’ll probably complete the recall when the parts are available. The thought of a door opening while driving is terrifying.
The dash panels are easily removed to gain access to the tumbler. I had no issues with my door knobs before the recall and I have no issues with the door knobs after the replacement. My key still turns, the grenny still starts, the wheels still go round and round
Yes, I've also had a passenger door fly open on a turn because of this. The door can give its pleasing -thunk- closed sound yet still fail to latch if the button sticks.It is fairly easy to “unstick” but if you miss it and don’t see the warning light, the door will fly open.

It’s a flaw. You shouldn’t have to spray the door handles on your brand new $90k vehicle with lubricant every 3 months. I get that works and I was doing that until an incident with my daughter. I shouldn’t have had to yell at a 6yr to hold onto the inside door handle from her booster seat to keep it closed til I could find a safe place to pull over., which was a problem because I didn’t become aware of this until I was entering a roundabout because the sensor was not showing it open and we couldn’t tel going 5mph in bumper to bumper school traffic until we got to the roundabout. I know enough to notice when the buttons were sticking but the 5th grade safety patrol at school doesn’t (funny enough, they get confused the by button all the time and try to just pull it without pressing the button weekly)I noticed a couple of mine were sticking today (2024 vehicle but new to me). Quick squirt of lubricant in the lock and push the button a few times while open, and they now seem fine. New locks seem like overkill?

I got mine replaced a few weeks ago.
