When I go to lock the car I push the door lock in on the drivers side and it pops its self back open. Is there anyway to make is stop doing this without unhooking the power locks?
 
In my vehicle, that happens when you try to lock while still having the key in the ignition. If it does this while you have the key out, then you're looking at something fishy between the wires of your door locks, your ECU, and your ignition switch.
 
i had the same at one point, it got really annoying. but i found the issue, it was right at the lock swivel thingy was slightly getting caught with the other surrounding plastics and well because it created some friction the restriction made the system somehow push back as a negative reaction in a failure to lock. well i adjusted the plastics from leaning on the lock swivel thingy and it went away.
