However this should be a response from the dealership instead of a 498 estimate to fix.
Vw jetta rear door not locking.
I shut the alarm off by unlocking the doors with my key.
I hear this is very common with this model.
I went to open the back door to reach the antenna and the door opened but the alarm went off the car was supposed to be locked.
Be it the switch for that side latch or actuator.
Plugged it back in and another success story.
Luckily i found this thread went and popped off the door to pillar dust boot and the frigin black lower of the two connector was tucked inside.
Hi my name is tabi i have a 2009 jetta she just hit her 4th birthday and now she is giving me issues.
After researching this i see it is a very common problem.
So i found the problem because i had to fix my antenna which deteriorated and was about to fall off.
Also the alarm system failed to chirp when pressing remote.
No thanx to vw i am constantly chasing problems on this car.

When one door has the locking issue it is likely an issue within the door.

The estimated cost for replacement is 595 per door latch total estimated cost.
Thank god for the internet.

The door locking mechanism stops working and this is a known issue in a lot of vw forums online.
And tonight the pass rear door lock stopped working.
They call it the actuator and when it stops working the child locks do not work and the vehicle then has a major safety issue which relates to child safety seats that contain defective safety belts buckles or components that create a risk of injury not only in a vehicle crash but also in non.
I would think that if the actuator in the door was bad that the buttons.
See all problems of the 2008 volkswagen jetta.
Took to dealer and spent 500 on a lock mechanism in the door.
