Door Won't Open. Lever Stuck. Cold or mechanical problem?

[Aimster]

I cannot open my driver side door. I try pulling up the lever but it won't budge. I feel if I try to pull it up that I'll break it.

Is this a result of the cold or is this a mechanical problem?

I had to take the highlander out instead tonight

By the way I tried to open it from the inside by reaching my hand over from the passenger side (behind it). It wouldnt budge.

Something is stuck/frozen?

I have another problem on my other door, it won't open. However I can pull the lever on the outside. Weird. Had this problem for awhile

The door could be frozen. Try parking it in a warm garage for the night and see if that will do the trick. If not, maybe swing by the dealership tomorrow.

In in Alexandria. Door frozen shut. i hit around the edges to break the ice. then i opened it, to find the rubber seal at the bottom frozen to the body. then it ripped it off. great times...
