Q: Door locks not working, and trouble codes

asked by on November 30, 2016

I bought this new with about 100,000 miles on it. The auto door locks were not working but am tired of dealing with it. Took it to a well known auto repair in my area (Fort Dodge IA) only to be told all five door lock actuators need to be replaced. I am having trouble believing this. Said they scanned codes c022, c0281, c0265, c0223, c0221,c0237. Said right front wheel bearing is shorted out and recommend replacing then retesting the system. They gave no other comments on door lock problem. Please can you help me/

My car has 150000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
