Default Buzzing sound in rear when I lock doors (more)

When I lock or unlock my doors with the remote, I hear a buzzing sound that is coming from the rear of the car. It has only started doing it this past week. Is this a problem. The locks work fine. I am just worried about them failing if it continues.
Thanks,
Greg Davis

Probably the gas-cap door lock. Of so, can be fixed with lubrication.

the noise is the vacuum pump for the door locks. it's a normal noise unless it gets worse.

Same problem-i used wd-40-temporary fix...probably longer lasting lubricant will be better.
