What year and how close together time wise are you trying this. There are alot of door lock actuator issues with these cars.

check that there isn't a c-best setting programmed into your car which is preventing your drivers door to unlock. the dealership can hook the computer up to determine if this is the problem or not. simple fix if it is.

mine did that once. i bought a door look actuator off of ebay for $199. i haven't installed it yet because it only happened when it was really cold outside. buy one just in case the problem becomes more persistent, then you'll have it ready to install whenever you need it.

It is more than likely your door lock actuator. See the following.
