Thank you to the contributors on this thread. After reading the warnings I became concerned every time I started my car and heard that lock.

I pulled the fuse yesterday with the help of the members here. It is now living in my center console like others have posted here.

One thing that did throw me was the delay I experienced when starting the car afterwards. I guess that is the time allowed for the lock to slide which is silent now?

Yes it was replacement time for my 09, I just hit 20K when I went in for the warranty replacement. I was getting nervous last year after the lock started to became famous as obvious recall in waiting. 615 is what it would of cost me had it happen real early in this cars life.
