Door Latch issue?
 
Sorry guys I did search but my issue wasn't the same as others. Recently the passenger side door started getting stuck in the locked position. The first time it did it I drove with passengers hoping over and then it randomly unlocked itself one day. I manually locked it and then unlocked the car for a few days after from the inside and at that point it would still open if I pulled the handle. Yesterday it got stuck down again and won't go up with the key or buy using the key FOB.

For starters how the F am I supposed to remove the door panel while on the car and the door is locked? Also has anyone else been entirely locked out of one of the doors?

I pulled the lock peg up with some pliers but it doesn't unlock the door. I also know it can't be the carrier because that wouldn't be intermittent. Do I have a coding issue of some sort or has the electrical portion of the latch taken a dump?

Latch rusted. I bet that is what happened. There is a coat hanger trick where you reach in and pull the unlock pin.

Look here. The last replies are the ones you want to read.
