Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

From owner reports, verbatim

THE DRIVER DOOR ON MY CAR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE DOOR LOCKS ON MY CAR. THE DRIVER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR STOPPED WORKING AT 60000 MILES, SO I SPENT THE $500 TO REPLACE IT. THEN THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR ACTUATOR STARTED ACTING UP, AND NOT WORKING. NOW MY DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN AT ALL, THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 85000 MILES ON IT. THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT HAVING SOME KIND OF MANUAL OVER RIDE TO GET THE DOOR OPEN. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING ON THE INTERNET A LOT, AND HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH TOYOTA/LEXUS VEHICLES. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND TRYING TO CRAWL OUT OF MY TINY CAR IS VERY PAINFUL. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I WERE TO GET IN A WRECK AND NOT BE ABLE TO OPEN MY DOOR.
