Glad to hear they got to the bottom of it. Sounds like an opportunity for some design improvement, continually retrying the solenoid over and over every second is just overkill. No wonder you could smell burning!
I still don't get on with the door handles. They don't feel sturdy enough, and the ergonomics of it don't sit well for me (the angle, the flatness , the action of it all). Another silly gimmick that should have been avoided, especially if prone to failure and burning out
The switchgear for the window and door looks identical to the 10th gen civic - which seems to be holding up well in the wifes civic.
