Warning! DO NOT BUY!

I originally wrote a positive review about this item but have since given up. This door lock perfectly matches the factory original. Unfortunately, after less than 2 weeks it stopped working properly. The cable attached to the inside door handle did not retract after being pulled. The door handle did not open, so the door could not be opened either from the inside or from the outside. The mechanic had to remove the door panel with the door closed, reach for the damn contraption, reset the lever

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Some cons

A common problem with a door lock actuator has a simple solution.

*** Update 07/30/2017 It's been a little more than three years since I bought and installed this part at all. He started behaving about a month ago when it got really warm in here. This seems to be a common pattern for these drives as they wear out and fail. The warmer the weather, the more they play up. However, today seems to be the day he decided to fail completely. I will be buying another one to replace and hope it lasts for some time. This seems to be a common problem with full-size GM…

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • High price

Avoid this part - failed in less than 4 months!

===========10/5/15 Update===========My door won't open anymore. I took it to the Cadillac dealer today and they said the actuator was faulty. Accordingly, this part took less than 4 months. Judging by other reviewers, this is the topic. I would recommend avoiding this part and going with the OEM version (Genuine GM door lock 25876387, front). The dealer will charge me $550 to replace the actuator which is a pain but I'm not sure I want to mess with that myself again. Disappointing…

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Some flaws
