      Kharon--same issue here on 2008 Aveo 5. 2008 Aveo 5 hatchback. We replaced the trunk actuator but still happening. Did you or anyone find a solution?

      Did some quick tests. Theory - the drivers door lock mechanism feeds back to the under dash control module when the security system is armed. If the drivers door mech does not tell the ctrl mod that the door is secure, the module repeatedly tries to activate the lock solenoids on all 5 doors. I would open the drivers door inside panel and use a meter to check it before ordering parts. I'll post results when I get around to that. Until then, I pulled the fuse so the solenoids don't wear out, and I'm open to any info that will confirm or debunk my theory.

      Kharon, I have a 2007 Aveo 5 with the same lock issues noted in this thread. I brought the car to the local Chevy dealer, and after a day of trying (unsuccessfully) to find the root of the problem they threw their wrenches in the air and gave up! I took your advice and pulled the remote door lock fuse. At least I don't have to deal with the constant lock "clicking" while I drive. I'll keep hunting for a solution to the problem - but no luck so far.
