My driver's side door doesn't unlock all the way. sometimes it does it like it's supposed to and sometimes it does it maybe 1/2 way. What should I check?

Check and lubricate the mechanism in the end of door where it latches. WD 40 or similar should make it move more freely.

ill spray some wd-40 in there and see if that fixes it. i really dont like wd-40, but if it gets the job done...

It's not my choice either, but works for the quick fix. A light lithium grease sticks better once it's loosened up.

i sprayed some in there - the door opens with less handle effort....i may take the door lining (inside pretty piece) off tomorrow after work and see what exactly I need to do.

I'm pretty sure the 4th gens are built better than the 5th gens....
