2016 Subaru Outback rear locks randomly worked with autolock and now don't work at all

Asked by GuruLY4P2 Mar 25, 2019 at 09:23 PM about the 2016 Subaru Outback 2.5i Premium

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

2016 Subaru Outback rear locks only randomly worked with autolock and now don't work at all. First noticed under warranty when I walked up and opened left rear door setting off alarm. Thought it was key fob issue. Dealer couldn't figure it out, and I realized later that lock wasn't locking when hitting the autolock button. Now out of warranty by 8K miles. Then it started working on and off. Now right side rear door started doing it last week. This week, neither rear door autolocks. I've changed the settings from driver door to all and back several times. Any ideas?
