Everytime the locks go off they make a wierd chewbacca sounding noise. Any ideas on what it is? How to fix?

the problem is with one of the door lock actuators that is failing. eventually it will stop making the noise and not work at all.the only remedy is to isolate the noise (find out what door its coming from) and replacing the actuator. you can isolate it by putting your ear next to the door panel for each of the doors and listening to see where the noise is loudest as the locks are operated. if you have a keyless remote its easy; otherwise you may have to have someone work the locks for you.for a dealer to do it you'll be looking at about $200 parts and labor.hope that helps

hi it sounds like a door lock actuator , this should fix this noise

Alright mate, yea there right, go and get it repaired before it breaks down, it's not the cheapest job to to get fixed.
