Door Lock Issue

Group,
Our ML exhibited the dreaded machine gun lock issue. By searching the forum I have been able to find the troubled door. Left rear. The lock mechanism has more resistance than the rest causing this problem. It is still covered under the 30 day warranty from CarMax. Now the questions are:

1) Are the lock assemblies repairable?
2) If so is the repair reliable?
3) or should the lock assembly be replaced?

My fear is that they are going to attempt a repair just to get it past the 30 day warranty. We do however have an extended warranty that will cover this but is the MaxCare warranty worth a flip? We should be able to take it to the dealer but with a higher deductable $75 vs. $50
