My doors are randomly unlocking (they automatically lock after 7-9+mph) while driving. Anybody have this problem and/or suspect the cause?

Any feedback is appreciated.

The doors are designed to unlock in an accident. Some have reported they also unlock when doing extreme maneuvers, such as fast, abrupt cornering, etc.

This has been a problem for some in the past.

IF the doors are unlocking when you hit a bump, or in a hard corner (with a little chassis flex involved), then the problem is the adjustment of one of the door switches. When one door switch shows that the door has been opened, all doors open (you can check this every time you get our of your car).

You simply need to figure out which switch, and adjust it (or have the shop do it).

I don't think its happening while driving erratically/aggressively. I do have low profile tires but I've had them for a while and it just started happening. However, it started happening recently after I hit a curb at a fairly high speed (so pissed about the curb rash on my once beautiful polished lips).
If I figure out that its once of the switches, how would I go about adjusting? (DIY-sytle - I'm out of warranty)

there's a sensor somewhere. the doors will unlock even when you go thruogh a deeper pothole or something similar. any irregular bumps will unlock the doors

I found that if you have loose items in the trunk, they can slide and hit the rear SAM causing the door locks to unlock. And others have had the door controllers fail. (FYI) I have an extra passenger side controller.

thats interesting...for the past week I've had a topsider jug full of oil sliding and bouncing around in the cargo/truck area. I guess maybe its been hitting the SAM (??). What is the SAMand where would it be located in the trunk/cargo area (where the fuses are perhaps)?

RES

Where the fuses are is the rear SAM.
